A diskmag is an electronic magazine that can be read using computers. The term "diskmag" is short for "diskette magazine". The traditional method of exchanging a diskmag with another person was either via the floppy disk itself, as the name would imply, or by dial-up BBS. Today's diskmags are distributed by any means possible, typically through the internet (FTP, WWW, IRC, etc.).

A unique and defining characteristic about a diskmag in contrast to a typical ASCII "zine" or "t-file" (or even "g-file") is that a diskmag usually comes housed as an executable program file that will only run on a specific hardware platform. A diskmag tends to have an aesthetically appealing and custom graphical user interface (or even interfaces), background music and other features that take advantage of the hardware platform the diskmag was coded for. Quoted from Wikipedia An underground ezine is a publication without defined periodicity that discusses any subject which the publisher deems interesting or newsworthy. Most are distributed free and made by the ezine organizers. Some articles are contributed by other persons. The medium was supposedly created in 1984 by Cult of the Dead Cow. Quoted from Wikipedia
