I have had my iPad for about two months and have really enjoyed using it. I have really enjoyed reading books on the device so much so, that I converted one of my recent academic papers into a book just so that I could read it using iBook. Based on that experience, I wrote my second book:
How to publish an eBook: to the Apple iBookstore in less than a day because I think that there are many more people out there who will want to do the same thing. My reaction to the success of the books and the ease of publishing them is that they will probably lead to a major proliferation of new books that may be of widely varying quality. What do you think?
