Let's talk ePub and iBooks!

Katie and I had a blast talking about ePub with everyone! Here are some resources we discussed, and some we didn't get to! Thanks to everyone who joined us!

dotePub
This website is a great way to make online content into an iBook... super easy, and super quick!
http://dotepub.com/

Creative Book Builder app
This is the app that we quickly demoed, easy to use and allows for text, hyperlinks, images, video, and audio. ($3.99)

Book Creator app
This app has a great interface, but lacks the ability to add video. It is still worth checking out! ($6.99)

Webinar for Using Pages to Create iBooks
I did a webinar a few months ago for Classroom 2.0 Live about how to use Pages to create an iBook. This link will take you there and provide some more thoughts and resources about ePub.

ePub Bud
This website advertises themselves as a website where you can publish, convert, store, and download free children's ebooks online for the iPad... worth checking out.

An ePub Wiki
A resource with examples...

Firefox Plug-In
Allows ePub files to be read/viewed, but multi-media is not supported.
