For the first time, business technology executives can access hand-picked InformationWeek news, analysis, and opinion stories anytime, anywhere using an iPad. InformationWeek's iPad app, called InformationWeek Select, provides a daily dose of information hand-selected by its award-winning team of editors. Designed as a lightweight portal to efficiently deliver critical IT-related information to business technology executives, the app features content across relevant categories, including Software, Security, Cloud, and Mobility, as well as choice content from InformationWeek's popular Global CIO column written by industry heavyweight Bob Evans.
"InformationWeek Select gives decision makers the news and expert commentary they need to know - now," said Fritz Nelson, VP and Editorial Director, InformationWeek. "The iPad and other tablets have great browsers for consuming the InformationWeek web site, but the iPad app is a way to get editor-selected and filtered content daily."
Full InformationWeek Magazine subscriptions are already available on the Kindle and on InformationWeek.com for IT professionals looking to dive deeper into business and technology strategies, trends and issues. The InformationWeek Business Technology Network produced more than 50 interactive digital issues in 2010; generating well over 100,000 user downloads.
InformationWeek Select is one of the many digitally based applications the brand intends to launch to guide its audience of more than 9.73 million IT decision makers through tough business and technology decisions.
"In today's sound bite world, where users' attention spans are shorter, there's value in aggregating and packaging just the top content," said Rob Preston, InformationWeek's Editor In Chief. "Our goal is to deliver InformationWeek content in all the different ways IT decision makers want it, whether it's a full issue of InformationWeek, choice content via InformationWeek Select or the broad array of content on InformationWeek.com."
Features of InformationWeek Select include:
-- Navigation: optimized for the tablet. Fixed position navigation bar
with clean, easy links to specific topics
-- Related content: allows users to browse similar topic content in easy
and efficient manner
