The EDGE Digital Magazine joins a family of market leading gay-oriented media properties that currently serve over 1 million dedicated readers. The company operates a network of websites at www.EDGEontheNet.com and locally in Boston, New York, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Philadelphia, Fort Lauderdale, Miami, Dallas, Chicago, Las Vegas, Fire Island, Providence, Seattle, Washington, DC, and Provincetown.

"Our goal is to be where the LGBT community wants us to be---not only on the Web---but on social networks and mobile platforms," said EDGE Publisher David Foucher "With the advent of the iPad, readers can interactively experience magazines as never before. The EDGE Digital Magazine maximizes this experience with dynamic design and diverse content; it represents a huge leap forward for gay media."
The EDGE Digital Magazine debuts on September 6, 2011. The inaugural issue features a variety of entertaining and provocative stories, including a cover story on Nate Berkus, Oprah's out designer whose new television show is garnering critical praise.
