The Occasional Magazine is Done with Newsstand
I subscribe to few periodicals in Newsstand for iOS, so it’s not terribly surprising that my favorite is abandoning the platform. The publisher of The Occasional by Funny or Die has decided that the iOS-only publishing model is a dead-end and they are moving the periodical to the web instead.
This is from the end of the last edition:
The Occasional has consistently provided an interesting reading experience through enhanced, yet intuitive, navigation as well as subtle animations. It will be interesting to see how well this transitions to the web.
