A conversation and product demo with Justo Hidalgo, Co-founder and Chief Product Officer, 24Symbols (Madrid, Spain).
24Symbols is a multi-device, cloud-based ebook catalog. The free version is ad-supported and gives users access to a limited catalog. To access the full catalog, there is a subscription model. Currently there are roughly 4000 ebooks available, mainly in English and Spanish. By the end of 2011, they expect that number to be closer to 20,000. They are already beginning to have ebooks in other European languages as well.
A big plus for publishers is the access it gives them to realtime statistics regarding aggregate reading patterns.
Thanks Eileen for your interest and your interview. meme360 rocks! :)
