(Montvale, NJ, September 19, 2003) - SYS-CON Media, ), the world's leading i-technology publisher, today announced that .NET Developer's Journal has applied for membership in BPA International.
BPA International will track circulation for .NET Developer's Journal (.NETDJ) based on business/distribution, demographic, and geographic coverage. The magazine will have 12 months to complete its initial circulation audit.
".NET Developer's Journal's unique focus is on the corporate developer," said SYS-CON Media's Group Publisher, Jeremy Geelan. "As we move increasingly towards living in an always-on world - a world in which we want and expect data to be available to us anytime, anyplace, and on any device - the creativity and productivity of corporate developers is the very life-blood of the .NET Framework. With the active participation of several of Microsoft's Regional Directors at the editorial board level, .NETDJ is able to drill down every month far beyond the marketing hype into the code itself."
.NET Developer's Journal is a featured title at Microsoft's upcoming Professional Developers Conference in Los Angeles and, by arrangement with Microsoft, a copy of the latest issue will be going into every delegate bag.
Glenn Hansen, BPA International President and Chief Executive Officer, said, "We are pleased to have .NET Developer's Journal apply for membership in BPA International. I'm confident that our audit of its circulation will help the publication in its efforts to assure advertisers that it effectively serves their target markets."
