A Vook blends a well-written book, high-quality video and the power of the Internet into a single, complete story.[1]
Vooks are available in two formats: As a web-based application you read on your computer and a mobile application for reading on the go. With the web-based application there are no programs to download or software to install. A version of each title is available for download on an iPhone or iPod Touch through the Apple iTunes store. Both applications allow the user to read a book, watch videos and connect with the author and friends on one screen, without changing platforms.[2]
Vook officially launched October 1, 2009 with four debut titles, published in partnership with Atria, an imprint of Simon and Schuster: Promises, a romance by Jude Deveraux, The 90 Second Fitness Solution, a fitness book by Pete Cerqua, Embassy, a thriller by Richard Doetsch and Return to Beauty, a health book by Narine Nikogosian.[3]
Vook was founded by serial Internet entrepreneur Bradley Inman[4] and came to wide public attention after being featured in an article in the New York Times in April, 2009.[5]
