While I’m more of a traditionalist in the reading experience (i.e. not a huge fan of e-books), I’d really love to see how you can socialize the experience. A huge plus would be the ability to annotate directly on the e-reader, then have collapsed threads/convos open up either directly on the page or directed to a platform like Good Reads to continue the conversation.</p> <p>I’m not as up to speed on digital publishing so feel free to let me know if this idea already exists!
