    eBooks are becoming more affordable and with devices like the Kindle, Nook, and soon to be released iPad, ebooks are becoming more practical (as well as environmentally friendly as they save paper.) This trend is predicted to move full scale into the college scene within the next 2-3 years. These are the links from the Horizon Report 2010 on this topic.

  • With the release of the iPad just weeks away, enhanced e-book apps are becoming a hot trend in publishing, with many major publishers announcing plans for enhanced titles.
  • "An eBook by itself is not enthralling; what's on it is. And we have the technology that allows us to do all of this. So why not use it?"

  • Devices such as the Amazon Kindle, the Sony Reader, the Stanza iPhone application, and many others are changing how people access books and (more importantly) how authors reach readers. This video is a reprise of my presentation from BookCamp Vancouver 2009 - it provides an overview of the current state of the e-book market, an introduction to the technology, and a summary of the session's discussion on the ramifications of this disruptive development for publishers, authors, and readers alike.

  • Such encounters are becoming increasingly difficult. With a growing number of people turning to Kindles and other electronic readers, and with the Apple iPad arriving on Saturday, it is not always possible to see what others are reading or to project your own literary tastes. You can’t tell a book by its cover if it doesn’t have one.

    Interesting observations are happening about the need for the cover of a book with so many people reading ebooks the cover is less important.

  • The major strengths of the iPad are the multiple client support and integrated, controllable backlight while the weaknesses are the lack of eInk, lack of Adobe Digital Editions support (for those free library books), and weight in your hand compared to dedicated ebook devices.
