My first iPad eBook App, Micrographia, is now available in Apple’s iTunes App Store.
Use this direct link to download the App to your PC: http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/micrographia/id367694834?mt=8.
In addition to containing the complete text of Robert Hooke’s landmark introduction to microscopy, Micrographia also features five plates from the book that can be copied to your device’s Photo Album and subsequently used as wallpaper on your iPad.
Micrographia is a free App.
Pending approval by Apple, my latest App has just been uploaded into the iTunes App approval queue. Micrographia is a repackaged eBook of Robert Hooke’s Micrographia: Some Physiological Descriptions of Minute Bodies Made by Magnifying Glasses with Observations and Inquiries Thereupon from Project Gutenberg.
This App contains the complete text, along with all accompanying illustrations, as published by Hooke in 1664 (also cited as 1665 by various sources).
A noteworthy extra featured in this App is the ability to copy five of Hooke’s high-resolution illustrations into the user’s Photo Album. Once copied, these illustrations can be sent to friends, used as wallpaper, and transferred to a host computer.
Micrographia will be available as a FREE App exclusively for iPad.
My popular book App, YO!, is now available as Version 1.1. This newly revised version was released in response to several reader’s reporting a problem with saving the edited order of the App’s Tab Bar buttons. This issue has been resolved and Version 1.1 will be provided as a FREE update to all current owners of YO!.
Are you having difficulty getting past that YO! book cover? Can’t seem to find any “text” inside the Science tab? Just let yo finger do the walking–or, page turning, in this case.
When you launch YO!, the book cover is displayed in the Science tab. By either touching this cover image or swipe scrolling downward, you will find yourself face-to-face with some serious yo-yo science info.
Enjoy.
Here is a direct link to my recently published App book: YO!.
Note: This link will open iTunes on your desktop.
Did yo know that a yo-yo can spin faster than a propeller powered by a piston engine? Read YO! and you’ll be in the yo know, now.
That’s right, YO! is now on sale at the Apple iTunes App Store. You could probably classify YO! as a book or eBook — that’s, in fact, what category houses this App. But YO! is unlike any eBook you’ve ever seen before.
For example:
YO! is $0.99 and it’s available today.
YO, bro; there’s a new eBook headed your way. And it’s unlike any digital book that you’ve ever read before.
