How Mobility Is Aiding Writers And Readers

When eBooks were newly invented, a new trend was begun. Libraries rapidly adopted the technology as it was easy to present information in digital format. It proved to be the most revolutionary technology in the market of publishing, reading and writing. Of course it affected the printing book industry. In 2012, 72 percent of readers read printed books but there was a decline of 5 percent in 2013. And as of a new survey, slightly fewer Americans are reading print books.

Wide adoption of eBooks pushed mobile app developers to optimize educational materials to mobile devices. Take the example tablets which can nowadays handle most of the tasks a PC can do. Modern tablets and smartphones come with a lot of sophisticated features, and with a right sort of applications they can be turned into an ultimate learning tool.

Colleges, schools and various training institutions around the world are bringing educational, study materials and instructions on mobile platforms through dedicated apps and students are able to access these stuffs without the limits of time and place.

Mobile apps have given writers a new way to sell their writings. Amazon’s Kindle Fire, for example, has emerged a gigantic platform where writers, with right set of skills, are doing wonders. Yes they are selling their e-books which are being read by millions of readers around the world.   

Not only regular educational books are being converted in digital format to push the concept of e-learning but also, books for entertainment are also getting mobility. Comic book companies like DC and Marvel have already brought their apps on in mobile.

Previously, indie writers were not able to publish their books under the banners of big publication houses but now they are free to publish books in electronic formats on their own. Today, we have hundreds of thousands of eBook writers around the world and indeed these writers are making good money too.

Conclusion

Mobile apps are a fantastic tool, particularly when it comes to providing education and training. By adopting mobile apps education and training institutions can present students with a convenient environment for learning.
