About TIME Interactive



The world is getting Interactive. Whether wired or wireless, we're more tuned in, turned on and interconnected--faster--than ever before. But behind the headlines and hype: Does all this whiz-bang technology work? Does it make our lives better, more efficient, richer? TIME decided to find out. We sent correspondents around the world to explore both the cutting edge--remote-control medical operations, virtual gatherings of faraway people--and the mundane--finding a date by i-mode. The result is the groundbreaking magazine-TV-Web presentation called TIME Interactive. TIME's June 4 edition (on newsstands May 28), CNN International's special Our Interactive World broadcasts from May 28 to June 1 and, of course, our website, www.timeinteractive.com, will offer you a chance to participate, too. (Want to be a Special Correspondent for the issue? Click here.)

As for interactivity, we're offering our readers plenty. To create a magazine that's truly interactive, we scoured the world to find the simplest, most affordable way to link print with the Web, the :CueCat. It's a device that scans bar codes, or Cues, in the magazine to bring you directly to special interactive features deep within our website. We are cooperating with Digital Convergence, which makes the Cats, and offering a limited number of them free to the first readers who contact us. Those without :CueCats, don't worry: there are other ways to get to these special webpages. (You'll just have to type in the URLs or visit the Interactive homepage.)
