Travel+Style
Announcing the launch of Travel+Style, an interactive, independent guide to the most inspiring and sophisticated hotels in Asia, Pacific and Africa.
Each hotel we write about is published as a separate feature article with original text written by our travel writers. Each feature article is prominently supported by an interactive gallery with promotional hotel photographs – as well as a second gallery with our own photographs for the hotels we visit.
Apart from the feature articles we also publish smaller pieces covering aspects of the hotels or activities, as well as articles about destinations.
We write in Polish only and are targeting an affluent traveller from Poland as our key niche audience.
You can read more about the website in English on the About page, http://travelplusstyle.com/o-nas/aboutus

Often people ask me what camera or kit I use. It’s nothing fancy! Click on the photo to view it on flickr and mouse over the photo notes to find out.

Exclusive peek at the Intelligent Life’s spring edition
Inexplicable: due to some error on the Economist’s Intelligent Life team part I was able to download the full spring issue of this fine quarterly onto my iPad, before it was even finished. No hacking involved, I simply tapped the “download” button, while browsing the Intelligent Life app.
The obvious perk is the exclusivity, as I am probably the only (?) member of so-called general public to check out in advance the exceptional—as usual—articles, essays and everything else.
This is not a finished product, but in itself that’s quite special. It offers me a unique snapshot of the design process: some images are only low-res, adverts are still-to-be-added and there are numerous comments, I am presuming from the designer or art director.
Initially I assumed this is the final product, maybe the QA was botched, I thought. I posted a whining tweet about it—as you do—and the editor Tim de Lisle emailed me, curious as to what am I talking about, since they haven’t published the spring edition yet. Knowing the IL team wouldn’t release the magazine without making sure it’s of top quality I find reassuring.
I hope the IL team won’t get crossed with me for publishing the cover of the spring issue—after all the leaks are in fashion lately (I won’t publish any other pages).
By the way, the best thing about IL for iPad is that’s it’s completely free. As always, I will be looking forward to the next, summer issue, knowing I will have to wait for it longer than everybody else (now, that’s the sad part of it).
