iBooks Author - Apple Has Done It Again

thomasqbrady:

Just go watch this video. There’s nothing I can add in describing what they’ve done.

I think iTunes not only brought back the single, but gave indie music a platform.

I think iBooks and iBook Author will do the same for publishing.

iBooks Textbooks, along with the iPad, will finally yank the education and education publishing industries forward about fifty years.

Thank you, Apple. Again.

Amen!
