With all the possibilities for multi-touch interactivity—infographics, audio, and video—writers will be able to deliver a more powerful and engaging message. The first ebook of this kind—designed for the iPad and iPhone—is Our Choice by Al Gore. I especially love the interactive windmill: you blow into your device’s microphone to make the windmill move. See a demo of the ebook on TED.com. [...]

With the way our technology moves today, books can be somewhat dry and very quickly, even out-dated. Having books on some sort of eReader, the content could remain fresh by being hooked into various things (like the location of the picture being in Europe on the map). Another possibility with regard to the figures for geothermal energy and wind energy is that those figures could be UPDATED and then they would be updated for the person who owns the electronic version of the “book.” Fantastic work!

With Love and Gratitude,

Jeremiah
