---A digital app turns Esquire readers into shoppers, viewers and more
Consumers perusing the December issue of Esquire magazine can now multitask by doing a little online shopping along with their reading. The publisher is using Netpage, a new iPhone app that turns paper pages of print magazines into digital interactive pages. Readers can use the Netpage app to interact with the print edition of Esquire and do things such as purchase items in ads, play videos, and digitally clip and save any article, photo or ad and share it via e-mail, text, Facebook, Twitter and other social networks.
Esquire says all its magazine issues going forward will work with the Netpage app. And Hearst Corp., which publishes Esquire and other popular magazines including Cosmopolitan, Marie Claire and Elle, says it will use Netpage for more of its magazines in the future.
