On Monday there was an article on Techcrunch about a startup called Inkling that has developed an innovative digital textbook platform for the iPad (picture above). Their technology adds collaboration, multimedia, 3D, quizzes and social interaction to the basic reading experience and they have just released their first book/app – an iPad version of Lights, Camera, Capture: Creative Lighting Techniques for Digital Photographers. It is priced at $9.99.
The app contains the full text of the original, over 100 videos, and interactive photography simulators which allow you to change one parameter and see how it affects an image.
This is a huge step forward from reading a paper book and will make learning easier and more fun.
