One of the more interseting moves in publishing of late is a startup called Printcasting.

It is a free service that lets you create custom newsletter-styled magazines with your own blog content, and content others have contributed to the service. The magazine you create is constantly updated with your chosen content, and you can download and print as many copies as you want to distribute.

Your magazine will feature paid ads, the revenue from which is shared with you.

I can think of more than a few ways to use this service, from packaging your blog’s ‘magazine’ with a job application, to promoting your site by dropping off copies at trade shows, or even your local doctor’s office or local library if your blog has a broad appeal or a local focus.

Popular blogs might find this an interesting revenue generation tool as well, since advertisers tend to spend more money for print ads than their online equivalent.
