The first-ever video advertisement will be published in a traditional paper magazine in September.



A printed magazine will have a video advertisement in September, the first ever. The slim-line screens - around the size of a mobile phone display - also have rechargeable batteries. The chip technology used to store the video - described as similar to that used in singing greeting cards - is activated when the page is turned. What's the bet someone finds a way to hack these little gadgets into something useful.

The last gasps from a dying (extremely biased and inaccurate) form of information
