Hello!
 
     I am a student at Virginia Tech, and am starting a new electronic 
magazine which I hope will eventually expand to encompass schools across
the country.  Ahh...but that's the future.  Since this is not your normal
type of magazine, I feel that I had better explain a tad bit more.

     On your campus, I am sure that you have such things as campus
newspapers, magazines, newsletters, etc..  I don't want that to be
restricted to just the campus.  And why should it?  Computer networks tha

are already in place, such as USENET (which you are using right now),
SURANET (Southern Universities Research Association Network), and of cour
e
THE Internet (with a capital "I"), all provide a medium through which any
amount of communication can take place.

     This is all fine and dandy, but what about a staff?  That's the real
point of this post, and I hope that some of you will respond to it (via
e-mail please, article responses take so long to travel).  Essentially,
the requirements are very lenient; some knowledge of journalism and/or
some knowledge of computers and/or some knowledge of DTP and/or some
knowledge of networking and/or (please someone in this area especially)
some knowledge of multimedia.

     To get a little technical, the prototype is currently being designed
in Windows 3.1, on a 486/DX2 50 Mhz EPSON (slowest DX2 PC Mag ever tested
,
using Authorware Professional from Macromedia, Inc. under a site license
at Virginia Tech.  If anyone at Tech or anywhere else is interested in 
working on a Mac prototype, I'd be extremely interested in talking to you
about it.

     I know I've been vague, but if you have questions, and are the least
bit interested in helping, please drop me a note via e-mail.

P.S. - If a person at the MM Lab at Tech under the username of "tlilly",
          please drop me a note, I lost your mail by accident!  Sorry! :(
