sharing a copy of Mothering Magazine

Incredible how online shopping has evolved over the years. I've found myself wandering more and more into US websites for exciting stuff to buy... and today i just got meself a one-year digital subscription of Mothering Magazine. I enter my credit card details, and within 5 minutes, an email arrives into my inbox giving me a link to assess my first digital copy of the magazine. How amazing! I mean, really really speedy, i say. So i'm impressed. Besides being environmentally friendly and having nary a carbon footprint, the digital subscription allows me to forward the ENTIRE magazine to THREE friends. Yup, that means my US$12 a year subscription for six bi-monthly copies is now triple the value. And, if i take the pains to print out the digital copy (which i don't think i will cos that defeats the point right???) , i could even lend it on to other friends, increasing the circulation! So i am mighty pleased. Initially I was tempted to subscribe to the print copies cos nothing beats touching and feeling a magazine. somehow, it makes reading more leisurely than peering into your laptop. But the costs were just too prohibitive, and i'm looking at the stacks of old mags i have at home that i don't know what to do with. So... the greenier option won.

So why did i blog? Cos i wanted to ask WHO WANTS me to forward the digital copy to? In case, you're clueless about Mothering Magazine - it's a great US-based magazine that promotes natural living, very pro-breastfeeding and attachment parenting.
