There is a plethora of glossy magazines being churned out in the country today, from the pithy to the pitiable, covering topics of interest to the general public or to a specific interest group. In my opinion, those publications that have made it a point to focus on a niche are the ones that will find loyal readers.
One such magazine that was launched last 10 October 2008 is iCreate. It’s a publication that’s very narrow in focus, but wide in possibilities. To begin with, iCreate targets Mac enthusiasts and users of other Apple technologies. However, it also styles itself as a rich resource for those who are seriously considering a switch to the world of the Mac.
I’m not exactly a Mac user myself, but I do appreciate that there are Filipino-made niche publications out there for those who find themselves enamored of Steve Jobs’ creations. 
Thanks to my friends, Otep Benavides and Niño Carandang (head of marketing for iCreate), for inviting me and my blogger-friends to the magazine’s launch. The first issue actually came out 15 August 2008, and it is currently the only Macintosh magazine in the country. It comes out bi-monthly and costs P295.
iCreate is published by Bella Luce Publications, the same outfit behind these magazines: Digital Photographer Philippines, Golf Punk Philippines and Wedding Belles.

Nice article. Thanks.
