''Aggregation'' was a Canadian online magazine published between 2010 to 2012. Each issue collected together stories and trends from five contributors based on hyperlinks they'd discover on the web. It was one of the first Canadian publications designed exclusively for Apple's iPad.〔("Aggregation magazine says its the first 'wayfinding' magazine for the internet" ), Canadian Magazines, November 23, 2010〕〔("Torontolife.com executive producer launches Aggregation Magazine" ), Masthead magazine, December 2010〕 ''Aggregation'' was conceived and published by Gary Campbell. It was released online, for free, on the 15th of the month for six consecutive months, from November 2010 to April 2011. After an eight-month hiatus, Campbell announced that a seventh issue was in the works.〔("Gary Campbell, web creative director for St. Joe's, leaving to pursue personal projects" ), Canadian Magazines, January 2012〕 That issue was eventually published in August of 2012 while Campbell was living in New York City. There has been no indication whether more issues are forthcoming. Each magazine cover featured a unique piece of interactive artwork by Campbell. The publication's design often took advantage of the multimedia nature of tablets by including touch-sensitive and video elements. Each issue's contributors were paid for their work through an honorarium to their charity of choice. Consequently, the publication raised several thousand dollars for Canadian charities far and wide. Other staff involved in the project included Jennifer Campbell, Laura Kathleen Maize and Rani Sheen. ==Awards and honors== In a year-end article in ''Masthead'' magazine, ''Canadian Living'' magazine editor-in-chief Jennifer Reynolds cited ''Aggregation'', alongside other digital magazines ''The Kit'' and ''Covet Garden,'' as one of the most fascinating moments in Canadian magazine publishing in 2010.〔("Year end Q&A: St. Joseph Media" ), Masthead magazine, December 2010〕 Toronto's ''Eye Weekly'' included it in a list of required reading,〔("Five new webzines worth a click" ), Eye Weekly, January 2011〕 as did Torontoist〔("New Things to Read and Procrastinate With" ), Torontoist, January 2011〕 and numerous other blogs. ''Aggregation'' was a finalist for best tablet magazine at the 2011 Canadian Online Publishing Awards〔(Canadian Online Publishing Award winners, 2011 )〕 In 2012, Campbell was invited to speak about the magazine as an example of the changing the media landscape at the Toronto Digifest conference.〔(List of speakers at Toronto Digifest, 2012 )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Aggregation (magazine)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
