            <title>New Open Source E-Magazine</title>
            <link>http://swik.net/User:conficio/Software+documentation+one+screencast+at+a+time/New+Open+Source+E-Magazine/bvkii</link>
            <description>&lt;p&gt;There is a new magazine on the electronic newsstand. It is called &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.o3magazine.com/&quot;&gt;o3 magazine&lt;/a&gt; and published by Spliced Networks.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The magazine reports on news in the open source world and is distributed as PDF document. The complete magazine is produced using open source tools, namely Open Office for writing articles, &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.scribus.net/&quot;&gt;Scribus&lt;/a&gt; for page layout and &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.gimp.org/&quot;&gt;Gimp&lt;/a&gt; for image production.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I  read the recent &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.o3magazine.com/o3/issue9/o3-i9-72.pdf&quot;&gt;#9: Open Source Publishing&lt;/a&gt; and found it rather unimpressive. The black and white design schema looks rather morbid and the overall layout is not very consistent. My pet peeve is gray text on black background for the table of content. Why make it hard instead of easier for readers to find what is in the magazine?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;As to the content, it did not strike me as impressive. One article about publishing images with Gimp, and another one using Scribus, and two articles about OpenOffice, the very same tools that are used in the production of the magazine. The two articles about using OpenOffice are about writing a newsletter and about collaborative writing with the Open Office word processor Writer. Both articles lack a vivid writing style and any usable detail. What I learned from it was &amp;#8220;Open Office can do both, collaborative writing and publish a newsletter&amp;#8221;, no more. I didn&amp;#8217;t learn anything how particular good OOo is at performing the task or how bad, how I actually do it, what steps to take, what pitfalls to avoid or where the programs limits are. Both articles did not even contain one screenshot to dazzle me with a marvelously appealing result.&lt;/p&gt;
