This looks interesting: http://www.maggwire.com/ It doesn't look like it's ready for prime-time yet...it's still marked beta. But they're claiming that Maggwire Premium will be "the iTunes of magazines" when it launches. There's a box on the homepage that says "Submit your email to receive a free trial when we launch!" Here's a little something from the "about" page: "With over 10,000 magazine titles attracting 200 million American readers, Maggwire makes discovering magazine content a personalized experience. Utilizing social intelligence, our system recommends magazine articles you will enjoy reading from over 600 magazine titles...Based on your historical reading preferences, Maggwire learns what you like to read. As you rate articles with 1-5 stars, we begin to build a personalized profile of your interests. Then we predict how you will rate new articles. The more articles you rate, the more accurate our recommendations become." Bernie Sloan
