Airbnb is moving beyond its internet roots into the world of publishing with the launch of a glossy quarterly magazine. The apartment rental Web site is launching the first edition of the magazine
this week. The 128-page magazine, called "Pineapple," is a glossy coffee table production of the same ilk as i-D or Wonderland. The magazine promises to take a "new and inspiring look at travel
through the
lens of the Airbnb community". Each edition will explore three cities, with London, Seoul and San Francisco featured first.
