Papyrus e-book concept takes aim at students {Engadget}
Apr 19th 2008 10:42AM Wow, I did not think that my comment was going to generate that many responses... Thank you!
@ schmitty338: I know that there are schools that already practice "VirtualTextBooks" but it's not everywhere... I really wished that major campuses around the States were doing the same as your school (I think it's a High School, from what I understand!).
@ johnny5: Realistically, I don't think that students would be able to "re"sell their VirtualBooks. What would be very nice is a way to update content to your TextBook, and be able to have them for life as reference books. You would be able to build a personal database that would include "references & links to original materials," "quote management (to find your quotes by "Theme," "dates"...)."

Apr 18th 2008 4:41PM OMG... Let me tell you:
From a person like me, who takes classes, and give classes, this would be the most perfect tool.
Obviously, these types of invention do not come to fructition, because of the TextBook industry.
I agree with you when you say that an online downloadable text book community would be great. Students could pay a variable fee depending on how many books they download, and how many classes they are taking.
Unbelievable that in the beginning of the 21st centuy, we have not resolve the problem of way-too-heavy school bags... It is a serious problem in countries like France, where periods are divided very differently than in the US.

Smile trainer exercises mouth muscles, creeps us out {Engadget}
Mar 15th 2008 12:04PM I remember something similar from my childhood, in France... This stand up comedian from Canada was... How should I put this?... Very "limber" with his face... Does that make sense? Anyway, he made very funny faces, and explained to French people how you can do a facial gymnatic every morning in order to give more elasticity to your face muscles... Courtemanche, I think he was called...
Apple posts Leopard Guided Tour {Engadget}
Oct 29th 2007 7:24AM Actually, I think APPLE is obsessed with Cover Flow, because it is the opening to the Touch lifestyle that APPLE is getting in.
Leopard looks like it had been made to be touched. The icons are more bubbly, and the entire OS looks like it can be used with the finger.
I cannot wait for this iTablet like thing...
