Recently I discovered this awesome website that's a Netflix/Spotify for magazines called Z-Pass by Zinio!


Zinio has thousands of top magazines from around the world. You can browse and purchase subscriptions or single issues instantly from your computer or mobile device to read whenever and where ever you want. In 2013, Zinio was named the best iOS App during the Best Ever Apps Awards at the 2013 Mobile World Congress. It also has a four-star rating in the iTunes and Android app stores.

As part of Zinio, there's Z-Pass. Get three magazines each month for just $5 a month. No commitment. Like I said, Netflix for magazines! Choose three subscriptions from hundreds of popular magazines for $5 a month. Use Z-Pass to test out new magazines instead of committing to a full year of something new.

Want to give Zinio a try for free?

I am giving away 9 free subscriptions to any of the magazines offered by Zinio to my readers. Choose from the world's top magazines in technology, design, automotive, home decor, art, world news, and more!

I recently hit up Downtown Detroit Days with some of my girl friends in support of Detroit's new shopping scene, pioneered by Somerset Collection's CityLoft. Downtown Detroit Days (DDD) runs a few weekends throughout the summer (there's no more scheduled this year) and has been a Detroit tradition since the 1950s. DDD transforms an empty lot, once home to J.L. Hudson's, an outdoor marketplace featuring the best Detroit and Michigan based brands, local artists and entertainers. We shopped and had a great time all while taking in the sights of downtown and the heart of Woodward.

For awhile now I had been in search of the perfect bamboo iPhone case so I was pleasantly surprised to find one at DDD in the Eye Zig Zag booth. And since there was a "buy two" deal going on and I wanted to support a local startup, I figured this would be a great "Back to School" giveaway!

The real bamboo brings balance to your high-paced tech life with its natural grain and texture and it also makes for a perfect autumn accessory! The hand-made case slides apart into two pieces for easy application and features a felt internal panel to keep from scratching the backside of your phone. Cutouts in the wood allow for access to all the phone's components.

As everyone gears up for school and mourns the end of summer, I thought my followers might need this back-to-school, fall-is-upon-us pick-me-up!
