Chegg Launches New HTML5 Textbook Reader

Apple is expected to announce all sorts of interesting digital textbook news tomorrow, and it clearly has Apple’s competitor’s worried.

Chegg launched a digital textbook rental service back in August, and today they released an updated reading app. The app is written in HTML5, and it can be used in virtually any browser including the iPad.

The update adds a number of features, including crowd-sourced highlights, instant definitions, and access to Chegg’s Homework Help service. Simply highlight a bit of text and select “Ask A Question”.
