Interview Magazine -Underated!


Interview Magazine is an online website that is an update on todays fashion, movies, music, art, film, culture and so forth. The magazine itself was created by Andy Warhol in 1969. It became very popular and spread quickly. Afte Warhol died, the magazine was still in effect. It then became geared towards the fashion elite.

I personally have never heard or have seen this magazine. I probably have, but over looked it. The website is very catchy and interesting. The writing on the site was easily readable, and understandable. Although there was alot of information on the site, it was easy to understand and to navigate through. There was a headline of links that lead to different articles about fashion, movie, film, arts, culture and more. Each page had interesting articles that were in good length. Some articles on site are long and not everyone wants to sit and read. I really liked how the articles were well written and enjoyable to read.

I think that the site was very appropiate for an online magazine. Although isnt like a traditional and portable magazine, it still provides just as much information and pictures, if not more. The articles were written to be made understandable. They are not written in a research paper format and keeps you interested, and wanting to read more.

Another pleasant thing about the website is that it is easy to navigate through. I feel as is my 66 year old grandmother was to be on this site, she would be able to handle it with ease. Some websites are just pure nonsense, full of clutter and hard to find the information that you are looking for, and i feel that Interview magazine is a very good example of simplicity and yet full of information that is easy to find. I like the layout of the site. The page is simple, white background, black font. There is a search box right at the top of the page which make it helpful to find exactly what you may be looing for.There are pictures that are very fashionista and i am into all of that! http://interviewmagazine.com/fashion/

There are alot of videos and audios. The thing that i like about how the setup is, is that there are only a few videos on display, and there is the alphabet at the bottom of the page which allows you to search for certain videos or artist, directors, etc. http://interviewmagazine.com/media/

The site is very active. There is a newsletter that you could recieve with updates on the list of topics on the site. Interiew magazine allows you to join and be apart of the website, and this allows people to interract with others worldwide. There is also a calander link, that provides you with specific dates with events that take place and so forth. http://interviewmagazine.com/calendar/

The homepage has a link to their facebook page as well that has almost 40,000 people who like the page, which leads me to surely believe that Interview Magazine is very popular, and more know than i thought it would be. Facebook/Interiew Magazine
