Production Log - entry 3

With technology moving faster than ever, different types of media are trying to catch up and stay relevant, making themselves more accessible to their audiences, for example, you can now tweet your views into X Factor, or follow the BBC News action on Facebook.
Music magazines have also picked up on this now and Billboard (a world famous, American music magazine) has launched its brand new iPhone and iPod touch app.
The application (available from the app store) can tell you who's on the latest charts, with records dating back 60 years and a self-refresh system which is programmed to give you the latest music news every Thursday. This allows the magazine readers to access latest information on the go, and will encourage them to buy Billboard magazine, instead of other music magazines out there.
When creating my magazine, I would also like to have an app that my audience can download to keep up with the latest information about the music industry.
