In reply to UKC News:
I don't have a tablet, but it seems like you've tried to go for a traditional magazine style aimed at tablets (where page turning seems more natural) and added integrated video to give a modern touch. I imagine this approach would work fairly well on tablets. I have some slight concerns over the lack of creativity/ingenuity which goes into this fairly basic approach, but that is slightly irrelevant.
Constructive (if in some cases a little harsh) comments:
-I think the font choice looks poor, and like a first time blog.
-I think that black text on white background should be avoided outside print. I'm pretty sure there's quite a few studys which show it's harder on the eyes (than other colour combos, white on black for instance), it make it look slightly unfinished in places, and is only the 'norm' due to printing costs, which we have clearly moved away from here.
-The formatting and layout in general also adds to the slightly unfinished and amateur look. some of the full photo pages look great, but as previously commented, pages where neither photo or text fill half the screen is pretty poor. There's lots of more personal preferences which aren't necessarily constructive (such as justified text), but I think you just need to take each page and ask yourself if that page looks like a quality designed page, or whether you've decided you really want this photo, but don't really have anything to say about it, and therefore if it is contributing well, or whether you need o have some kind of multiple photo page or other approach.
-Leading on from the two above points, being viewed on a wide screen monitor, the extra space is simply filled by more white, which looks a bit daft. If you had a coloured background behind the text, and maybe put a fake page frame around it, it might look nicer.
-I'm not sure in what cases you intend to use this format, but I can see it being most effective in your monthly news letters or as a monthly download for tablet users, where similar styles of article can be grouped together with some nice contents page to flick between the articles.
Hope this doesn't seem too negative as I think UKC is great in soo many ways.
