A New Kind of Digital Book

I came across this on Twitter. A major hats-off to developer Mike Matas, who has created a very sexy way to experience a book. I look forward to reading it. [Or is “experiencing it” more accurate?]

From TED: Software developer Mike Matas demos the first full-length interactive book for the iPad — with clever, swipeable video and graphics and some very cool data visualizations to play with. The book is “Our Choice,” Al Gore‘s sequel to “An Inconvenient Truth.”
