PING! Magazine is proud to announce the launch of the second issue this April 2014 through – out Europe, Africa and the USA. In this issue we’re celebrating our apps on iTunes, PlayStore, Pocketmags and getting a print distribution deal with WH Smith.
PING’s layout has been improved to give the viewer a more rewarding experience; it’s now in a more sleeker and elegant format. PING! is an acronym for “People, Innovation, Networks and Gadgets”.
PiNG! is a lifestyle magazine with focus on technology, gadgets, pop-culture, fashion, health and fitness? Africa’s first gadget and lifestyle bi-monthly publication is available in print and online.
