Apple Pushes iBooks 3.0 Update Live, Comes With Kindle-Like Features And Vertical Scrolling
Also new to the update is the ability to receive free updates to existing books, with chapter additions, corrections and more. That makes books living documents, so that users can have stuff kept current, and publishers can push updates live as they happen. This is aimed primarily at the education market, but it’ll be interesting to see what other publishers take advantage and how it changes consumer titles.
Vertical scrolling is also great. Books with pages? That’s so physical world. Why are we clinging to dead paradigms? To the future!
