 ====== Trincoll Journal ======
-The //Trincoll Journal// was a webzine that ran from 1992 to 2000. A webzine is defined as a magazine that is posted on the Internet, and //Trincoll Journal// is widely considered one of the first of these web-based magazines.
-The magazine was started by a group of 25 Trinity students to serve as an alternative to the printed //[[tripod|Tripod]]//. It was "first developed as Hypercard Stacks on Macintosh SE's, a Quadra 840AV, and a Centris 610," and utilized an early version of the NCSA Mosaic. Upon switching to the World Wide Web system for publishing, //Trincoll Journal// became one of the first student-run magazines on the web. Their first issue was released on May 1, 1992.

-The magazine was published weekly and incorporated graphics, sounds, and texts into its layout. Each week featured a new and interactive graphic to serve as the "cover" of the magazine. The sometimes humorous and sometimes serious articles existed in several different categories, including "Commentary," "Sports," "Technology," "Fluid Thoughts," "Intercourse," and "Photo Essay." Though most of the staff were Trinity students, the journal took contributions from students attending a variety of colleges, including corespondents from schools such as Princeton University, the University of Melbourne (Australia), Tufts University, New York University, and University of Hartford.
