EnglishWhere to Follow Mike Maginot's Content Beyond mikemaginot.com
Updated
The Magic Times site lists three external channels you can use to follow Mike Maginot's work beyond the journal itself: a YouTube Channel, a Facebook Page, and Twitter. These appear on the mikemaginot.com homepage as links alongside the site's own sections, so they are the author's own stated extensions of the journal rather than third-party fan pages. The site remains the primary home for the writing; the social channels are where the same author points readers for updates in other formats.
The External Channels Listed on the Site
The homepage of Magic Times presents its navigation in two groups. The first covers the journal's own content — "Magic Times Journal," "2020 Vision Nouveau Blog," "Mark Time," and "Projects: In a World of Menus and Sidebars," followed by "Memoirs," "Film and Video Views," "Film School," "Short Takes," "Book Reviews," and "Presentations." The second group is the outbound set:
| Channel | What it is | How to use it |
|---|---|---|
| YouTube Channel | Video content linked from the site | Follow the "YouTube Channel" link on the homepage to reach the author's videos |
| Facebook Page | A page for updates and posts | Follow the "Facebook Page" link on the homepage |
| Short-form updates | Follow the "Twitter" link on the homepage |
Because the site does not print the handles or full URLs in its text, the reliable route is to start at mikemaginot.com and use these three labeled links. That guarantees you reach the accounts the author actually intends to promote, rather than a same-name account run by someone else.
What You'll Find on the Site Itself
If your goal is the writing rather than social updates, the site is where the bulk of the content lives. The page describes itself as "Blogging Before There Were Blogs" and organizes material into a journal, a blog ("2020 Vision Nouveau Blog"), memoirs, film and video commentary, film school notes, short pieces, book reviews, and presentations. There are also named projects, including "In a World of Menus and Sidebars," "Film vs. Reality: Depression Era Theatre," and "In the Foothills." The site's own notice states that original content is copyrighted 1999–2022, which tells you the archive spans more than two decades — useful context if you are looking for older essays rather than recent posts.
Choosing Where to Start
- If you want the essays and reviews: stay on mikemaginot.com and browse the journal, blog, and review sections. This is the primary collection.
- If you want video: use the YouTube Channel link from the homepage.
- If you want short updates or to follow along casually: the Facebook Page and Twitter links are the site's designated channels.
- If you want to verify you have the right person: confirm you arrived via a link on mikemaginot.com before following, since the site does not display the account handles in its text.
One practical caveat: the page evidence shows the links exist but does not show their destinations or whether each account is still actively updated. Treat the site as the stable, long-running archive and the social channels as extensions that may change over time. If a social link no longer resolves, the journal content on mikemaginot.com is unaffected.
