All About You at EverydayMe.Com.Ph
I never thought I'll be a fan of e-zines (referring to small magazines and newsletters distributed online) until my cousin introduced me to the Flipboard app. Since then, I've downloaded and bookmarked in both my mobile phone and laptop the following news magazines: Rappler, BBC News and Time Magazine.
