Thanks to all for the vote of confidence..
Here is more details on the idea
ICANN has created introductory guidebooks for newcomers/ learners on
various aspects of the ICANN Ecospace. These materials are either limited
print format or on a non interactive PDF Format
This proposal suggests an updating of the materials to become E Book
resources for use on mobile, Kindle and other devices. Secondly the
material would take advantage of the add on feature of audio reading
capability providing audio transcription to the existing materials
Key Benefits
-
Ebooks are searchable. You can easily search for any information in an
ebook, instead of turning page after page.
-
Ebooks can be interactive and contain audio, video and animations, which
can enhance the message that the author is trying to convey.
-
Subscribers to Ebooks get automatic notifications of updates for
downloading so the most current versions are always available and
distributed
-
Tracking of downloads and clicks throughs
-
Free widescale distribution channels to distribute Ebooks ie. Google
Play, Archive.org, Itunes, Amazon and more
