3Million Downloads for EyeMags

EyeMags has reached 3 Million downloads in its first 6 months of existence and it continues to grow at an ever increasing rate. Also since we added the mobile site where you can view magazines online before downloading we've also got to 70K page hits per day (that's ~2Million every month).

However, you may have noticed that in the last 3 months there have been no new features. The reason is that we have been busy working on another project - and this is even more exciting and going to be even bigger than EyeMags. Its announced tomorrow so they'll be more in a blog tomorrow. In the meantime the news has leaked out and if you want to read the news before its officially released read it here, here, here and here.

QR Codes for EyeMag downloads

You can now download your Eyemags using you PC screen using QR codes






If your phone supports bar codes then you should be able to point the phone camera at the symbol and download the EyeMag. Currently the Nokia N95 is best known for this. Run the barcode application in the office folder and after a few seconds a URL will appear - just click it and your phone will go on line to download the application.

1.5 Million downloads in 4 months

EyeMags has been running for 4 months now and 1.5 Million EyeMags have been downloaded.

Downloaders are also now seeing the value of previewing their EyeMag on the phones and in the month this facility has been available there have been 1/3 million page views of the preview pages.
