Good news for the EPUB eBook format is good news for the eBook Revolution
A special thanks to Jorgen for stopping in with a link to this PCWorld story. China and Taiwan have agreed (in principal) to push the EPUB e-book format for the Chinese-language market. This when officials met at a technology conference last week, with plans to meet next year to settle the deal.
This is huge news considering these two gigantic economies are called home by some of the world’s most avid readers. If ratified, the deal will open a market of 1.3 billion people to publishers offering their product in the standard eBook format (EPUB).
As soon as a standard is selected (EPUB) then publishers can focus on selling books and stop all the duplication of effort, yah?
