Story for OhmyNews about e-books and the LCC Futures Conference. Running a bit late but links into social networking so counters the idea that only printed books help make new friends.

There are now some clips on YouTube from the LCC Futures Conference. I have started with the eBook as this seems to be a crunch issue for the current situation for print. There is a playlist that includes some presentations from the London Book Fair.



1.Why the eBook will never happen- Chris Linford on barriers around electronics.
2.Ian Lacey explains how the structure in a book supports education.
3.James Fraser celebrates book design but recognises that digital devices are coping with large amounts of text.
From London Book Fair,
5. Sony
7.advice for publishers and
8.some detail on the ePUB format.

It might be better to start with the London Book Fair ones and then look at the problems identified at LCC Futures but this depends on what you have seen already.
