After issue 2 hit the streets it became clear-for various reasons-that the Hub’s spritual home was the internet-98% of our sales were online, 99.9% of our fiction submissions were online, and100% of our reader feedback was online. We were also-despite all but selling out every issue-unable to sell enough advertising to keep the dead tree version of the magazine running. The magazine was popular, but we were awful at selling!  \nOk, so what are the changes?  \nGood question. Thanks for asking. Hub used to be published 6 times a year (well, would have been, had the print version lasted six issues). We’re now published 52 times a year! No, that wasn’t a typo. Hub is also now free to read! (Neither was that) .  \nEvery week we will be publishing a piece of short fiction, along with at least one review (book, DVD, film, audio, or TV series) and we’ll also have the occasional feature, too. We can afford to do this largely due to the generosity of the people over at Orbit Publishing, who have sponsored this electronic version of the magazine, and partly by the generosity displayed by your good selves. If you like what you read here, please consider making a donation. Donations of all sizes are welcome. £1/$1/1Euro is good, more is (naturally) better. Orbit Publishing helps Hub survive, donations help us thrive. You can donate using the PayPal button on the front page of our website.  \nWhat if I don’t like reading while sat at my PC?  \nIf you have a PDA or other device capable of displaying eBooks, you can download a special eBook version of this issue from our website. In future weeks we’ll also be experimenting with versions for iPod. Failing that, hit the PRINT button.  \nNew York Games by Eric Brown  \n“Swifter, Higher, Stronger”  \n-Olympic motto  \nHal Halliday lodged his  \nfeet on the desk, poured  \nhimself a coffee and watched the opening ceremony of the 2036 PharmOlympic Games on the office wallscreen. Column after column of smiling, waving athletes paraded around the running track. Bayer-Germany marched into the stadium beneath their flag, the company logo prominent in the top left corner. They were followed by ICI-Great Britain, then Roche-Chile. A while later XenoMed-USA filed in, to tumultuous applause.  \nThese guys were hardly human, Hal thought. They had muscle where no sane person should have muscle, and life expectancies-so he’d heard-as low as their IQs.  \nHe’d never followed sports-the futility of mindless athletic endeavour depressed him-and still less the PharmoGames. He did, however, recognise a few faces in the ranks of smiling athletes as they marched past the hover-cameras.  \nFaces familiar from holo-ads and billboards, and one or two he’d caught in movies.  \nMovies   \nThat brought back a slew of unpleasant memories: how he’drowed with Hannah shortly before she’d dumped him, two weeks ago. They’d been to see some popular holo-movie about a go-getting business-woman fighting her way to the top. Hannah had loved the movie, and Hal had hated its shallow, materialistic moral. They had argued about it, and he’d found himself realising there was a wide streak of ambition in Hannah that he found sickening.  \nHe’d said something of the sort that night, and a day later Hannah had rang to say that she was getting out. Then, about an hour ago, she called again. She’d been thinking... she’d made a mistake... she wanted him back. And like the coward he was, Hal had kept his options open, said he’d think long and hard about it and get back to her.  \n* * *  \nThe dollar icon on the top right of his computer screen flashed on and off, heral","cbCaihSGsZ8mGykx","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaihSGsZ8mGykx","pdf",522405,14,"English","# Welcome and editorial overview\n## Issue 3 contents\n## “Why issue 3?”\n## Changes and reading options\n## New York Games (fiction)\n## Reviews and feature announcements","[{\"question\":\"What does Hub Magazine Issue 3 announce about its publication format?\",\"answer\":\"It welcomes readers to the first electronic edition and explains that the magazine moved online after early print issues.\"},{\"question\":\"What sections are listed in the Issue 3 table of contents?\",\"answer\":\"The contents include “New York Games” by Eric Brown, reviews of several titles, and a feature on creating a podcast, with page references.\"},{\"question\":\"How can readers support or access this issue?\",\"answer\":\"Readers are invited to donate (with amounts like £1/$1/1 Euro mentioned) and can access an eBook version for compatible devices or use a print option if they do not want to read at a PC.\"}]","Hub - Issue 3 - Editor’s introduction and fiction & reviews | PDF",1789963729,22]
