I voted Maybe. Their video is freaky and doesn't inspire confidence as it is all aspirational with no substance. The request a Beta invite button simply triggers the default mailer. Couldn't they have at least put up a form for you to type your email address and why you wish to participate (author/reader/professor etc). It feels like a website from ten years back when tens of thousands of dollars were being poured into websites with nothing behind them and everyone just expected the money would roll in. It gives me no clear idea of what they are trying to achieve or how they think I can help them.
I would however be willing to try their software, especially after Nookstudy proved so disappointing. There is a place in my reading experience for looking at heavily annotated e-texts on the computer, for things like the US Constitution or Beowulf, where a large monitor and better searching and note-taking facilities would be useful.
Has anyone actually followed this up?
