Mygazines Offers Full Magazine Scans Online

4:00AM Adam Pash | Browse any of a number of popular magazines for free—from Macworld and PC World to Cosmopolitan and Men’s Health—at web site Mygazines. The site contains user-uploaded scans of these magazines, and flipping through magazines displayed in Mygazine’s Flash interface is nearly as simple as browsing an actual magazine. It’s sort of like the previously mentioned Zinio on iPhone hack except you don’t need to pretend your browser is an iPhone to use it. You may not want to get too used to Mygazines, though, as Yahoo News reports that publishers are looking for ways to shut it down. Mygazines [via Yahoo News] More »

Find Magazine Articles Worth Reading with Brijit

12:30AM Kevin Purdy | Do too many of your magazines make a circular route from the mailbox to the recycling bin without being opened? New website Brijit aims to help you decide what’s worth paging through all those ads to read. The site’s paid staffers create 100-word abstracts from the articles inside more than 50 popular (and mostly high-minded) magazines and rate them on a 0-3 scale from “not a priority” to “exceptional, a must-read.” Grabbing the magazine-specific RSS feeds could help you make the most out of those hardly-read holiday subscriptions, but I’m hoping feeds tied to specific searches show up in the future.
