Abstract
Those of us who love technology and books got pretty excited when books went digital (for real) seven years ago. We saw opportunities for new interactions, new models of bookish information exchange, new visions of how publishing might work. And yet, seven years after the launch of both the Kindle and the iPhone, book publishing models look a lot like they did in 2007. Why are we still here, and what will it take to get beyond “paper under glass?”
