It's loaded with features--including an audiobook version read by professional actors, inline commentary from Shakespeare scholars, and social tools for your class or study group--and is available from the iTunes store for $9.99.

Amazon Launches "Singles": Dating Service For Lonely Stories | Fast C... - 0 views

  • Singles is not a dating service for lonely e-book fans. It's a (somewhat confusing) attempt by Amazon to inject a whole new level of creativity into the Kindle, but what it's actually all about is short stories. Singles as in music singles, you see -- letting you buy a single song rather than the whole album. Get it?"Less than 10,000 words or more than 50,000: That is the choice writers have generally faced for more than a century--works either had to be short enough for a magazine article or long enough to deliver the 'heft' required for book marketing and distribution. But in many cases, 10,000 to 30,000 words (roughly 30 to 90 pages) might be the perfect, natural length to lay out a single killer idea." That's how Amazon introduces the concept.

Contest For Early Pottermore Access Leads To Massive Traffic & eBay Action | paidCo... - 0 views

  •  
    Harry Potter e-books site Pottermore.com officially launches in October, but a "Magical Quill" contest that grants one million winners access to the beta site is drawing massive traffic. And beta accounts are popping up on eBay. For each of the seven days, a clue will be posted on the Pottermore homepage, leading those who solve it to the "Magical Quill"-the opportunity to register for early access to the site. A limited number of people are able to register each day, and the competition is designed to keep them glued to the site-though some winners immediately began selling their early-access accounts on eBay. (The bidding on one account is now up to $152.50.)
