How about an atlas?
I've always liked maps, and sometimes when reading fiction (in the real world, not fantasy) or non-fiction, I miss a map of the zone where the story is set up, so I can see where the cities, rivers, etc. are.
So... what would you think of an atlas for ebook readers? Can you produce any ideas on the format and interface? I was thinking that maybe having a world map with links (in text, below the image) to continents, then maps of continents with links to countries, and maybe links to further divisions for large countries, would be fine enough at first. The maps would not be incredibly detailed, just borders, main cities (perhaps rivers)...
Is there any project around? Source for the maps? Comments?
PS. I'm not sure I will make this, but if no one else does, I may bite the bullet.
