Overview

edit

Web User was founded by IPC Media in 2001.[2][3] The first issue appeared on 22 March.[3] The bulk of the magazine's content consisted of internet news, website reviews and features on web-related topics. Additionally, it offered product evaluations, free apps and software, step-by-step workshops, and advice on how to use websites, computer hardware, and software. The magazine was complemented by a website, launched in tandem in 2001.[3] It was sold in 2010 to Dennis Publishing.[4] It ceased publication after 516 issues in December 2020.

Topics covered include free software; PC security and maintenance; browser add-ons; the best Google tools; and the latest web trends and developments, such as Web 2.0 and social networking.
