@kylecassidy Great! Thanks for buying; pls rate if you like the full book. Was a fan of Ulysses Seen website, will check iPad version, tks.
@studiowalrus “And you can also use a Bluetooth keyboard.” En effet!
@atelier7_ana @studiowalrus Daedalus is pretty and works well with nice keypad touches. But writing on the iPad? Lent et pénible…
@kylecassidy @trillianstars You might like to know Don Juan Canto One now live is.gd/JIRLeu. Pls DM me if you’d like to review
My first e-book now on the iBooks store is.gd/JIRLeu :: an illustrated, narrated Canto One of Byron’s comic epic, Don Juan.

@kylecassidy @trillianstars Delighted you like the Don Juan project. Canto One in the iBooks store next month, Peter @MadBadDangerous
@mattdrobertson Sorry for the crossed wires, Matt. Two different threads. I guess the ZIp engine is the problem. Will try an unzipped folder
@mattdrobertson Not sure what you mean about zip. I was setting up a Gmail account & importing messages from Gmail IMAP. PB=PostBox :-)
@mattdrobertson Importing from Gmail. Hours to import/index. PB quicker. PB handled images better IMO (including optional load) Best, Peter
In the Bazaar, “quality happens only if somebody has the responsibility for it” is.gd/9SIbWu HT:@uxproductivity
@mailmateapp Yep, rubbish. I chose PostBox, too. Found the MM interface cluttered (altho liked functionality+) and import processing slow.
@mattdrobertson Media-overlays a key addition to Epub 3.0. Unfortunately Readium 0.5 still unusably slow loading media files in Chrome.

I like 5/6 of this list too. Stupid to call energy consumption a ‘bad’. Better 2 have a uniform federal consumption tax is.gd/xc21cA
Invite-only expert seminar @ Melb Uni on Trans Pacific Partnership. Texts are ‘secret’ so papers mostly Kremlinology. The juju mostly bad.
Ack! Joyent.com, formerly TextDrive where I bought ‘lifetime’ hosting in 2004, will end my “life” in October. Focuses the mind.
@atelier7_ana free AZARDI doesn’t do FL
well: no 2-page spreads, ignores CSS bg., no viewport scaling etc Don Juan illustrated audio iBook
@radiqxpress @tinahender commercial ePub font licensing terms are prohibitive. One of the biggest drags on quality FL production. #eprdctn
@TonyBarry @jameswpaterson @SincDavidson +1 Import taxes (barriers) like un-costed quarantine bans (bananas) first!
Memories of Hypercard @ 25: exploring brilliant stacks from Voyager: “Stravinsky: RIte of Spring” & “Brahms: Deutsches Requiem” Gone alas!
Image + audio + text extracts from Byon’s Don Juan, Canto One::is.gd/h5eFm9 In the iBook store next month #LordByron #poem #ibooks
@indiamos True:-). I load all the IOS fonts on to my development machine as a matter of course.
@indiamos I guess you know that Font Book (OSX) shows the full names (font-family, Postscript)? Info icon in toolbar?
