Are They the Business Travelers Best Friend?
By June 22, 2000 With viewing technology improving rapidly, one local company is trying to bring fun-reading eBooks to business travelers and avid readers alike. Seattle.internet.com caught up with Dave Howell, CEO of Alexandria Digital Literature, to talk about the future of eBooks and how he sees his business fitting in. According to Howell, there are a number of e-publishers zeroed in on the business market presently. For that reason, Howell has decided to avoid that market altogether. “The thing people forget is that business people have a life, and like to read for fun as well,” he says. In fact, the CEO has discovered a market he believes will be of great service to the avid readers among us. Alexandria Digital Literature focuses on out-of-print literature. The CEO believes his company will be of great service to those that may not get enough from the limited new releases of the large publishing houses. When a book goes out of print, the author gets control of their rights. E-Pub
