Alice for the iPad Shows Why E-Books Are Cool

Hi, we all love paper books. But you have to admit that e-books, can do the stuff that paper books cannot. Lewis Carroll's story of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland turned into a children's storybook but with an interactive twist.

This book is not meant to be read sitting still; it's meant to be shaken and stirred, forcing many interactive elements on the screen to move around, fall down or jump up. I bet kids will love it. My boys enjoyed this video.

Alice for the iPad is $9 in the App Store (there's also a free, lite version), but if you want a taste right now, check out the video below.

Hi everyone

Hope the school holidays were as brilliant for you as they were for my family.  Today being the first day back for my boys. :)

I saw this presentation, by Seth Godin.  It really got me thinking about people, ideas, leading and connecting with others.  Having a worthwhile cause and changing the status quo.  If any of this is of interest to you, I've provided the link for your convenience.
