Creative Computing
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Creative Computing was one of the earliest magazines covering the microcomputer revolution. Published from 1974 until 1985, Creative Computing covered the whole spectrum of hobbyist/home/personal computing in a more accessible format than the rather technically-oriented BYTE. The magazine was founded by David H. Ahl, who sold it to Ziff-Davis in the early 1980s, but remained as Editor-in-Chief. Featured writers included Robert Swirsky and John J. Anderson. At the end of its run, Creative Computing was attempting to refocus on business computing (as was the trend in most computer magazines of the time), but was not successful at this and ultimately ceased publication.
Ted Nelson, known for the invention of hypertext, was briefly the editor.
The April, 1980 issue of Creative Computing contained clever parodies of all of the major computer magazines of the time.
