In case you missed it, Vook has a new iPhone app that creates a fully immersed, multimedia experience for books. It’s really for the iPad but you can already start playing around and glimpse the future: text and audio and video all in one place. Books like Seth Godin’s Unleashing the Ideavirus, The Call of the Wild, Alice in Wonderland, and The Brother’s Grimm Fairy Tales, from 99 cents to $2.99.
This is what the future looks like – so you may as well be one of the first people to check it out, before the iPad starts shipping in on April 3rd
And if you don’t have an iPhone, you can impress your friends: “Hey Joe, curious what the future of publishing and magazines and newspapers looks like? Check out Vook.” (Won’t you look cool?).
This is already what newspapers are becoming, and magazines aren’t far behind.
And eventually things will look like this, and won’t that be cool:
Which Vooks, if any, have you read? Can you review one here?
I’m reading Seth Godin’s Unleashing the Ideavirus. Would love other ideas from folks – which types of book do best in this format?
My school just passed 1:1 for next year. I am amazed, I am excited, I am inspired. I feel like a kid at Christmas…
This is going to be an amazing tool for students.
