With all the ways that people can express their opinions through comments, post articles bashing other articles, and tell the world their preferences, the only escape from other people’s opinions has been reading a book. No longer.
Jason Johnson and Jason Illian have created a new mobile application called Social Books. Reader use it to leave comments on any paragraph, quote, or excerpt from a book, and even highlight their favorite parts, plus post it all to Facebook and Twitter.
Currently, the application is only available for books in the public domain such as The Great Gatsby. But this will likely soon change.
