Digital photo books without the work and time

People like sitting on a beach on a tropical island. They don't like waiting airport security lines and jamming into airplane seats.
A fun post about about setting more realistic and enjoyable expectations from NYT domestic disturbances blog.
"If I had more time could exercise and put together all those photo albums...

I’ve been meaning for so long to make photo albums,” I said guiltily. “At least for five years.”
“Oh, that’s nothing,” she said, folding her hands. “I’ve been waiting 50 years.”
"Nobody makes photo books."

But they would like them (just like they'd like to be on the beach). Ibiograph Day in the Life service eliminates the time and effort required to organize and make photo books. Do more without doing more! Look like a hero, while living your life. Get to the tropical island without the connecting flights.

People embrace digital books or ebooks

A noticeable increase in the offerings (Kindle announcements), consumer awareness and the perceived value of digital books or ebooks suggests that the time of the ebook is upon us.

• Last week Amazon purchased an Iphone app for reading digital books
• According to some O'reilly analysis and interpreted by ReadWriteWeb, Ebooks are one of the fastest growing iphone apps.
• Wall Street Journal published a special report on the implications of ebooks for reading and writing.
• Anecdotally, I saw a grandmother on a ferry in Maine reading her Kindle on a recent weekend (not the stereotypical early adopter techno-geek).

A couple of interesting points for reflection brought up in the WSJ review:
1. E-book change the way we read and write.
"Search (engine optimization) will change how books/prose are written."
2. Establishing more digital content worth paying for and setting consumer expectations appropriately.
"Yet that modular pricing system will have one interesting, and laudable, side effect: The online marketplace will have established an easy, one-click mechanism for purchasing small quantities of text."

Ibiograph Day in the Life is a service that helps people create personal ebooks of their memories from their mobile phone using text messaging. Since Ibiograph does all the work of generating the ebooks, all people need do is send pictures and text from their phone to get a powerful memory archive.
