Subtext Adds Social Networking To Google eBooks

Subtext from Subtext Video on Vimeo.

Subtext, a new iPad app for social networking platform in eBooks, has launched today. Like Kobo’s Reading Life, the app lets readers read and discuss books within the pages of a digital book with a community of friends. Readers can add links and have what the company is describing as “Facebook style discussions” around the book. Authors and scholars can also participate (Think DVD audio commentary for books). The above video goes into more detail about how it works.

The app is compatible with books purchased in Google’s eBookstore.
