It’s not just another dot.com. No, it’s Iceland Review on-
line. That’s correct. The magazine that explores Iceland’s
culture, nature and society, enjoyed by readers across the
globe for nearly 40 years, was formally launched on the
Internet on January 1, 2002, at www.icelandreview.com.
Now, from the comfort of your own home, you can check
out Reykjavík’s nightlife scene, bathe in the magical waters
of The Blue Lagoon, or trek across one of Iceland’s many
glaciers. All with the click of a mouse.
At icelandreview.com, readers will find sections organised
around such diverse topics as nature, culture, society, travel,
nightlife or eating out. By clicking on the section of your
choice, you can access a host of articles, complete with Páll
Stefánsson’s award-winning photography.
For readers who want to stay abreast of all major events
concerning Iceland, the Daily News From Iceland will also be
available at icelandreview.com. Many of our readers have
been enjoying the ´Daily News´ service for years, and with
the launch of our new site, the ´Daily News´ will be even bet-
ter, with a varied selection of news stories, along with regu-
lar weekly features. Of course, the popular ´Daily Life´ column
will remain an important component of the ´Daily News´.
FREE STUFF, NOMINAL FEES
On the new site, an up-to-date travel section will be available
free of charge. Readers will be able to take a virtual tour of
Iceland, checking out the latest Icelandic hot spots and get-
aways without spending a dime. Readers will also have unlim-
ited access to a range of other sections, including our book
pages.
Those interested in having access to a comprehensive look at
Iceland – the complete ´Daily News´, along with in-depth maga-
zine articles covering the full spectrum of Icelandic nature, cul-
ture and society, plus e-mailed headlines – will be able to do so
for a nominal yearly subscription rate. This includes ´Premium
Club Membership´, where members will reap the benefits of pro-
motional and discount offers from Edda – Iceland’s leading pub-
lishing house. Extended services for club members are planned,
such as the reopening of the popular ´forum´ for people to share
information and ideas. For those with just a passing interest in
Iceland, ´Daily News´ headlines and summaries will still be avail-
able free of charge.
I know what you’re thinking. Signing up for some Web services
make casual Internet-users break out in a rash. Iceland Review on-
line will be different. With a simple and easy-to-navigate mem-
bership form, and a completely secure payment structure, it will
only take a few minutes to sign up for icelandreview.com. Then,
the mystical world of Iceland will appear on your screen. ENJOY!
