It's Talk Like Shakespeare Day!


Romeo:

I fear, too early: for my mind misgives
Some consequence yet hanging in the stars
Shall bitterly begin his fearful date
With this night's revels and expire the term
Of a despised life closed in my breast
By some vile forfeit of untimely death.
But He, that hath the steerage of my course,
Direct my sail! On, lusty gentlemen.

Interactive Books

This is one dragon that I've wanted to slay for a long time: creating interactive books.

iPad: Apps versus eBooks. "Unlike e-readers, which typically reproduce a traditional book experience on an electronic screen, these apps can offer animation, music, and many interactive features."
