Share your notes

Readum from Travis Alber on Vimeo.

Times are a changin! But not really-- remember the way you used to seek out a copy of the required book for your college class with the most comments and highlighting already done in it, by another (presumably smart) student? Well it's something we're all still doing-- taking notes as we digest what we read, and trying to connect with other folks' opinions. Now there's an easier (digital) way to annotate and share parts of books-- Readum integrates Google books and Facebook, allowing you to select passages and comment on them-- both within the book and on your social wall/group. Could allow for some lively banter, pre-book club meeting. Pretty cool!
