MINNEAPOLIS, Sept. 5, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- IBM Systems Magazine has launched its first native iPad app allowing readers of the Power Systems and Mainframe editions experience the magazine in an iPad-optimized app with interactive features.
While IBM Systems Magazine content has been available in print and digital formats, as well as on the magazine's website (http://www.ibmsystemsmag.com), the iPad app provides yet another content format for readers. Publisher Doug Rock explained, "Our objective is to provide readers with a variety of media formats to choose from. The new iPad app is one more option for our readers. Tablet adoption among our readership is increasing, and we've addressed that growing trend with the new magazine iPad app."
