Apple thinks it can reinvent textbooks, Ibiograph has done the same for personal autobiographies

Discover your life with linked, multimedia autobiographies published from your mobile phone

Pundits, Publishers, and Apple alike identified ebooks and textbooks as one of the most significant aspects of the forthcoming iPad. Ebooks will transform the way people interact with books, enhancing stories and learning.

"people familiar with Apple's thinking have said that the iPad's use in schools was one of the focal points of discussion in developing the product. In its exploration of electronic books technology, it thought particularly about how it could re-invent textbooks. "
The reinvention includes integrated interactive multimedia that helps tell a story or explore a concept.
"active content that works more like programs rather than plain books" -2/2/10 Wall Street Journal

Publishers are starting to collaborate with technology firms in the hopes of adding search functions, interactive quizzes, glossaries, dictionaries, and video to their textbooks works by professional authors. What the big publishing houses are striving for on the iPad, Ibiograph has already accomplished for personal autobiography. Our exciting DayLife service helps you tell your living autobiography as you enjoy your life.
