Candy
Candy is a pdf only Irish magazine covering culture and design. It’s really pretty. But why PDF? PDF is an annoying format to browse through, if they’re going the computer way, why not do it as a proper web site? An 11 meg pdf is a terrible way to distribute anything Irish at the moment. Still, it has interesting and gorgeous content. Its linked in some way to the backlash night at Wax, which is run by Bodytonic music. You can download the two issues of Candy (which is all there is so far) here. It’s worth it.

Yay, Lara Croft in Ireland!
Feshti's back and this time he's counting down the top 10 movie opening scenes of all time.
Is American opinion and culture crowding out all others?

I find the whole thing a bit obnoxious. It’s probably the worst delivery system I’ve ever seen and makes the designers look foolish. What annoys me is the content is good, we need content on the internet like that. But then they go and stick it in this giant warbling pdf. What medium are they designing for? Hopelessly confused.
