Spider (computer magazine)

Spider magazine's cover for the January 2006 issue. The magazine has come a long way since its inception in 1998.

Spider written as SPIDER (written with a mirrored 'R') was a monthly magazine circulated in Pakistan by the DAWN group of newspapers, focusing on issues related to software/hardware and Internet technologies. The magazine sported a tagline boasting it to be "Pakistan's Internet Magazine" until March 2005. Since most of the issues discussed in its leaves are mostly about information technology rather than just Internet, the tagline was removed. A symbol that dons its cover pronouncing its identity is that of a mouse with eight limbs and a blinking red sensor as an eye over a web engulfed in a yellow circle, mostly found at the top-right corner of the publication.

History and profile

The magazine was launched at the end of the year 1998. Reader's comments and criticism were a regular feature in the magazine since then. The monthly comprised cover stories and feature articles usually on the growth of the internet and how Information Technology is affecting Pakistanis. Spider folded in 2014.[1]
