How Can Authors Enhance Their Reader’s Ebook Experience?

How Can Authors Enhance Their Reader’s Ebook Experience?

How Can Authors Enhance Their Reader’s Ebook Experience?

As we know the market for eBooks is growing, partly fuelled by the launch of new technology platforms such as the Apple iPad. There is still a lot of debate and development around the eBook market, for example what exactly is an eBook, and what is price point and value of an eBook compared to a printed book. Unfortunately, today, most commercial eBooks are little more than exact replicas of the print version.

Rather than simply outsourcing the conversion of a finished book PDF to an eBook, publishers could revise the design of the book to work better as a digital product. This means their editorial and design teams need to really grasp the issues and opportunities for eBooks and what the new technology can offer. For example, standard contents pages and page numbers can be dropped in favour of new navigation systems, cross book, external links or additional content could be added. Stepping back from this, new books could be stored in more useful XML formats from the outset.

An interesting question is “How can publishers develop the eBook to offer an enhanced book reading experience?” This then raises the questions “Would offering enhanced features mean publishers could charge more for the product in the same way as the film industry now offer special edition DVD’s with extra features at a premium price?”, and “Would readers realistically pay more for these enhanced features?”

Assuming there is a growing market for enhanced eBooks and that the revenue models can be made to justify the costs we can look to try and define what an enhanced eBook could be.

Here is a spectrum of the enhanced eBook world with some extra possibilities.
•    Standard eBook as an extract copy of the printed book
•    Search and indexing facilities
•    Annotation facilities
•    Audio content
•    Video content
•    Web links Links to forums and social networking
•    Ability to add or update information
•    Interactive graphics such as maps, charts and 3D drawings
•    Ability to interact with or take part in the book
•    Book content reformatted into an application

There are many opportunities to enhance the eBook experience many of which have come about as a result of technology advances in the last 12 months such as the introduction of the iPad.

Unfortunately we are in a position where the software and eBook formats are still lagging behind the opportunities, for example the standard ePub format is very basic and does not support any real multimedia. In some cases this is leading publishers to bypass eBook production and use application development to create enhanced eBooks.

Another consideration is the economics of producing an enhanced eBook and whether the extra cost will really result in extra sales and revenue or whether it is just a marketing exercise to help publicise the book. The price point for eBooks and therefore the margins are still being thrashed out. Printed book sales are offsetting the cost of creating the book in the first place but as printed book sales decline, the pricing models for eBooks will need to be sufficient to keep publishers viable.

So as you can see the world of the eBook and enhanced eBook is a rapidly developing place. The devices are there but the end product and the business models have yet to be defined. There are companies offering ebook conversions for publishers and ebook conversions for authors for will be able to offer you advice and help.

LJ Interactive are experts in providing digital services to publishers. LJ Interactive offer ebook conversion services for authors and ebook conversion services for publishers.

Apple is known for bringing out products that are not only path breaking, but have an enigma of their own. They create a niche market for themselves and they have a niche line of followers who always stick to Apple products. And the best deal is that they first create the product, the need for it is created automatically. This is the power of Apple.

 

The latest product that has sent ripples down the market spine is iPad, or the white marvel. A neat looking, sleek and sophisticated tablet looks like an absolute gem of a device. Its ultimate features like the 9.7-inch fully touch sensitive screen, multi-media, virtual keyboard, wide screen and visually appealing graphics can create an browsing experience that is second to none.

Contacts applications are quicker and easier
Vibrant display and unique software features
Battery back up capability
Multitasking
High-resolution screen
Easy to see and navigate
Powerful built-in speaker
High resolution Camera
Ubiquitous Connectivity
e-Magazine Reader
High-Definition Prowess

 

iPad Application development is yet another feature that is sure to make a huge difference in how the iPad performs. iPad is capable of not only using applications that are developed specially for it, but it can also smoothly run the ones that are made for iPhone or iPod touch. iPad Application development can bring in a whole new set of features that can make your iPad richer and more functional that before.

 

There are various options that iPad Application development provides. You can get applications for:

 

Games
Messaging
Sports
Travel

New York, NY (PRWEB) October 26, 2010

First-Ever Reader’s Tablet with Full-Color Touchscreen and Wireless Access

Enhanced Graphic Books, Magazines, Newspapers

and Interactive Children’s Books

Amazingly Thin and Portable

The Most Social Reading Device Ever Built:

Lend, Borrow and Share with Friends

Pre-Order NOOKcolor for $ 249 at NOOKcolor.com and in Barnes & Noble Stores, Touch the Future of Reading™ Beginning in November

Barnes & Noble, Inc. (NYSE: BKS), the world’s largest bookseller, today announced the launch of NOOKcolor by Barnes & Noble, the ultimate reading experience – the first full-color touch Reader’s Tablet that delivers digital books, magazines, newspapers and children’s books in immersive, gorgeous color, and all in one beautiful, thin and highly portable device.

NOOKcolor is now available for $ 249 for pre-order at http://www.NOOKcolor.com and at Barnes & Noble stores tomorrow, and will begin shipping on or about November 19. Touch the future of reading at a NOOK™ Boutique or display at your favorite Barnes & Noble bookstore, as well as at Best Buy, Walmart and Books-A-Million starting late November.

The first full-color touch device dedicated to reading everything and built on Android™, NOOKcolor opens up a whole new world of digital reading materials of all kinds, in addition to providing access to the largest bookstore with an unprecedented selection of over two million digital titles a single search away. Digital content – from bestsellers to favorite magazines in full color, and interactive children’s picture books and enhanced cookbooks – has never looked better than on NOOKcolor’s stunning 7-inch VividView™ Color Touchscreen.

Building on Barnes & Noble’s nearly 40 years of bookselling and publishing expertise, the company quickly became a leader in the digital arena following the introduction of its award-winning, bestselling NOOK devices, popular free software and expansive digital bookstore last year. This newest addition to the NOOK device family was designed for people who love to read every kind of content imaginable – and features 8GB of space, plus expandable memory, to store it all. NOOKcolor enables quick and easy shopping and book downloads in seconds over Wi-Fi®. NOOKcolor is also the most social reading device ever built – with Barnes & Noble’s new NOOKfriends™ technology, you’re only touches away from sharing with friends via Facebook®, Twitter® and email.

“With NOOKcolor, we’ve combined the functionality and convenience of a 7-inch portable wireless tablet with the reader-centricity of a dedicated eReader, and employed a breakthrough color screen technology that will wow customers,” said William Lynch, Chief Executive Officer of Barnes & Noble. Added Lynch, “NOOKcolor enables Web browsing over Wi-Fi, music, games and much more, but reading anything and everything in brilliant color is the killer app and squarely the product’s focus. At $ 249, NOOKcolor offers a tremendous value, particularly in comparison to the many other 7-inch tablets coming to market at twice the cost and often requiring expensive data plans. Most importantly, NOOKcolor is designed for and differentiated by what Barnes & Noble knows best: reading.”

NOOKcolor offers all the content you love, at your fingertips, experienced like never before, through Barnes & Noble’s newly expanded NOOKbook™ Store.
