Lewis Dvorkin, the chief product officer for Forbes, writes about how the business magazine has built a unique content model that combines traditional journalistic values, dynamic publishing and data analysis.
“Each issue of the magazine opens with a digitally inspired section called Leaderboard. ‘It’s our monologue in print that takes its cues from the world of FORBES online,’ says Steven Bertoni, who edits its various components. The Scorecard feature captures significant ups and downs from a Web feature that updates the wealth of 50 billionaires every 15 minutes. Buy/Sell/Hold filters topics we see trending on Forbes.com. Up-and-Comers brings to life an annual Need to Know online event that invites audience participation. And don’t miss the Sgt. Pepper’s-like rendition of our 100 highest paid athletes list, staring Floyd Mayweather, not Billy Shears.
