Macworld

Macworld was a monthly dedicated to Macintosh products. Now solely a website, it is published by Mac Publishing, which is headquartered in San Francisco. Founded in 1984, it was the largest audited circulation of Macintosh-focused magazines in North America.
==History==
In 1997, the publication was officially renamed to Macworld, incorporating MacUser (a name that was reflected subtly on the magazine's Table of Contents page) to reflect the consolidation of the -owned MacUser magazine into the International Data Group-owned Macworld within the new Mac Publishing joint venture between the two publishers. That year, the new company also purchased the online publication MacCentral Online, because Macworld didn't have a powerful online component at the time. In late 2001, the bought out Ziff-Davis' share of Mac Publishing, making it a wholly owned subsidiary of IDG.
The magazine has been published in many countries, either by other IDG subsidiaries or by outside publishers who have licensed the brand name and its content. These editions included Australia, Germany (Macwelt), Italy, Spain, Sweden (MacWorld), Switzerland (Macworld Schweiz), Turkey, and the United Kingdom. Its content is also incorporated into a number of other IDG publications.
The magazine's publisher licensed its name to another IDG subsidiary, , for the Macworld Conference & Expo, which took place twice annually in North America.
