BookRiff™ Offers a Sneak Peek at BookExpo America

BookRiff Media Inc. will feature its dynamic new web application at BookExpo America (BEA), North America’s largest publishing trade event.

BookRiff Media Inc. unveils its new web application, BookRiff.com, at BookExpo America (Booth #4522), from May 28 to 30, 2009. Now in private beta, the BookRiff.com web application enables users to draw together works from leading publishers and authors, website content and personal writings into print-on-demand published books.

Mark Scott, founder of BookRiff Media Inc. and President of D&M Publishers Inc., will be on hand to demonstrate how publishers and authors can use BookRiff.com to promote and sell their content.

“The value of BookRiff.com is that it empowers users to combine high-quality published content with user-generated work in an entirely new way.” Scott continues, “We put the power to choose content in the hands of consumers. In addition to publishers’ and authors’ curated books and chapters available on BookRiff.com, users can add content from other sources such as blogs, on-line magazines and the user’s own writing, to create a Riff™ compilation or ‘playlist.’ In this regard BookRiff™ is similar to iTunes. Copyright holders get paid for their work and consumers buy what they want. The finished product is a custom print-on-demand book.”

BookRiff™’s technology has been created in cooperation with one of North America’s hottest web developers, Nitobi Software. Nitobi was the winner of the People’s Choice award for its PhoneGap application at last month’s Web 2.0 Launch Pad competition in San Francisco.
