=== John Labovitz's e-zine-list

Last updated: 26 January 1993 by John Labovitz johnl@netcom.com

This is a summary of electronically-accessible zines – what they are, who puts them out, and where you can find them. In most cases, descriptions are excerpted from the masthead of the zine listed.

RECENT CHANGES TO THIS LIST

There have been many, many changes in the last couple of months since the last edition of the list. This section will reappear in the next edition.

Probably the biggest change is that there is now a hypertext version of this list, available over the World Wide Web using a suitable browser (see below for details). All FTP, Gopher, USENET, WWW, and WAIS links should connect to the appropriate place. There are probably a few mistakes; if you find a link that doesn't work, please let me know.

The other change, hopefully invisible, is that all versions are generated from a format-dependent source, and run through a program that creates either the ASCII text or HTML versions. This may still be buggy; again, let me know if you find any problems.

ADMINISTRIVIA

If you have any additions, deletions, or changes to this list, please email them to johnl@netcom.com.

It can also be obtained via anonymous FTP from netcom.com in "/pub/johnl/zines" as "e-zine-list" (ASCII text version) or "e-zine-list.html" (HTML version), via gopher at gopher.well.sf.ca.us and etext.archive.umich.edu, via the World Wide Web at "file:netcom.com/pub/johnl/zines", and via email from me (johnl@netcom.com). If you publish an e-zine, or know someone who does, send a copy to me and I'll add the relevant info to this database. Please include as much of the information below as appropriate: * name of e-zine * brief description (10 lines or less) * editor name(s) and email addresses * format (ASCII text is the default) * frequency * archive sites, including gopher, FTP, WWW, and WAIS * email address for subscribing (if other than editor(s)'s addresses) * Usenet newsgroups you post the zine to * other BBSs and online systems, including Compuserve, America Online, FidoNet, WWIVNet * voice phone, fax, postal address, if you want * ISSN number Comments, suggestions, changes, deletions, etc., are welcomed and encouraged. WHAT IS A "ZINE"? For those of you not acquainted with the zine world, "zine" is short for either "fanzine" or "magazine," depending on your point of view. Zines are generally produced by one person or a small group of people, done often for fun or personal reasons, and tend to be irreverent, bizarre, and/or esoteric. Zines are not "mainstream" publications – they generally do not contain advertisements (except, sometimes, advertisements for other zines), do not have a large subscriber base, and are generally not produced to make a profit. FORMATS Most e-zines listed here are in standard ASCII text format, which you can read on just about any computer or terminal, and print on any printer. A few are available in PostScript for printing on a laser printer (or viewing on-screen if you have a PostScript interpreter in your window system). A small number are available in some system-specific format (i.e., Macintosh HyperCard). More and more are becoming available in HTML (Hypertext Markup Language) on the World Wide Web. HOW DO I GET THE E-ZINES? I have listed the various methods of access for each particular e-zine. Briefly, I use the following: FTP – File Transfer Protocol The host/pathname is given in the form "host:path" that certain FTP clients (such as NCFTP) can use directly; otherwise, you'd probably type "ftp host" and then "cd path" or some such. All FTP sites listed accept anonymous logins (use "ftp" as username and your email address as password). If you are not directly on the Internet, you can use an FTP-mail server to get files. Perhaps the most widely known public FTP-mail server is located at decwrl.dec.com (send the message "help" to ftpmail@decwrl.dec.com for more information). (Thanks to John Reeves for supplying this missing information.) Gopher Only accessible if your site is directly on the Internet. Try typing "gopher". If it works, you have a gopher client, and can usually type "gopher host". WWW – World Wide Web Only accessible if your site is directly on the Internet, and supports a WWW-compatible hypertext browser. Current browsers include www (ASCII line mode), lynx (ASCII full-screen mode), xmosaic (X Windows), tkWWW (X Windows), Mac Mosaic (Macintosh), PC Mosaic (PC), Cello (PC), and probably a few others. Usenet – Usenet News Only accessible if your site carries the specific Usenet group. E-Mail – Electronic Mail You can usually request current or back issues via this address. Sometimes a site will run a mail server that automates some of this work. Instructions are listed, if applicable. Postal Last resort, or point of contact for zines that have paper editions. Phone/Fax Why? I dunno; because it was there. CompuServe You know, that out-dated system that charges ridiculous rates. Other BBSes and other on-line systems the zine resides on.

=== CRAM: the Cyberspatial Reality Advancement Movement

In an effort to bring valuable information to the masses, and as a service to motivated information compilers, I (L. Detweiler) will help others unfamiliar with Usenet `publish' their documents for widespread dissemination via the FAQ structure, and act as a `sponsor' knowledgable in the submissions process. This document is being distributed under this arrangement.

I have found these compilations tend to appear on various mailing lists and are valuable enough to deserve wider distribution. If you know of an existing compilation of Internet information that is not currently a FAQ, please contact me and I may `sponsor' it. The benefits to the author include:

- use of the existing FAQ infrastructure for distribution:

  1. automated mail server service
  2. FTP archival
  3. automated posting

- a far wider audience that can improve the quality, accuracy,

and coverage of the document enormously through email 
feedback

- potential professional inquiries for the use of your

document in other settings, such as newsletters, books, 
etc.

- with me as your sponsor, I will also take care of the

technicalities in the proper format of the posted version 
and updating procedures, leaving you free of the `overhead' 
to focus on the basic updates alone

Send comments relating to the *distribution* of this document (particularly relevant newsgroups not currently covered in its current distribution) or inquiries on other documents to ld231782@longs.lance.colostate.edu.

The choice of who I `sponsor' is entirely arbitrary. You always have the option of handling the submission process yourself. See the FAQ submission guidlines FAQ in news.answers.

Scream Baby

someone to use their fucking brains around here, I want a really
good all-encompassing-sub-culture zine. Music, literature, art,

humor, interviews, and re:views of 'Stuff I Think Is Cool.' Not all
at once, of course. Each issue of Scream Baby will come out whenever
I can scrape together 25-30 kilobytes of really good stuff."

quiet, anonymous and well-known. And yet, it's far from clear what
it might mean to be a 'voice' from, or on, the net. Enter Voices
from the Net: one attempt to sample, explore, the possibilities (or
perils) of net.voices. Worrying away at the question. Running down

The most recent version of this document can be obtained via the author's instructions above. The following directions apply to retrieve the possibly less-current USENET FAQ version. FTP — This FAQ is available from the standard FAQ server rtfm.mit.edu via FTP in the file /pub/usenet/news.answers/writing/zines Email —– Email requests for FAQs go to mail-server@rtfm.mit.edu with commands on lines in the message body, e.g. `help' and `index'.

Detweiler) will help others unfamiliar with Usenet `publish' their documents for widespread dissemination via the FAQ structure, and act as a `sponsor' knowledgable in the submissions process. This document is being distributed under this arrangement. I have found these compilations tend to appear on various mailing lists and are valuable enough to deserve wider distribution. If you know of an existing compilation of Internet information that is not currently a FAQ, please contact me and I may `sponsor' it. The benefits to the author include: - use of the existing FAQ infrastructure for distribution: - automated mail server service - FTP archival - automated posting - a far wider audience that can improve the quality, accuracy, and coverage of the document enormously through email feedback - potential professional inquiries for the use of your document in other settings, such as newsletters, books, etc. - with me as your sponsor, I will also take care of the technicalities in the proper format of the posted version and updating procedures, leaving you free of the `overhead' to focus on the basic updates alone Send comments relating to the *distribution* of this document (particularly relevant newsgroups not currently covered in its current distribution) or inquiries on other documents to ld231782@longs.lance.colostate.edu. The choice of who I `sponsor' is entirely arbitrary. You always have the option of handling the submission process yourself. See the FAQ submission guidlines FAQ in news.answers. ——————————————————————————-
