Introducing the New ElectronicDesign.com

In development for eighteen months and the result of input from web design experts, our engineering audience and feedback from advertisers, the new electronicdesign.com is a leap forward in usability for design engineers and results for advertisers. Representing a fundamental change to our publishing model, the new electronicdesign.com is not just print content on a computer screen; it’s about serving our audience using all the web can offer.

Redesigned to reflect the way our design engineering audience works online, the new electronicdesign.com is organized around content, not print magazine departments. Following a “web first” model, the content is presented in a way that allows the audience to explore information across media such as video, articles or the Design Center.
