Zoomdoggle
Zoomdoggle is "a blagazine built on a platform of fun." Ultimately, its purpose is to remind adults of fun – what it is and how to have it – through "doggles". Simply put, a "doggle" is defined as the simple pursuit of fun for fun's sake, and a "doggler" is anyone who actively pursues the idea of having fun, as personified by Zoomdoggle's founder and figure-head Jake Bronstein.
