Ask me anything

Hi. I'm Matt. This has been a place of regurgitation and frivolity (don't fret, it will continue to be) but, with any luck and a titch of effort, it will also become a place where I think, document and be more me than it has been previously. Run on sentence much?

• Penguin and the iPad

  mrgan:

  Strong, no-nonsense language from Penguin’s CEO John Makinson:

  The iPad represents the first real opportunity to create a paid distribution model that will be attractive to consumers.

  We will be embedding audio, video and streaming in to everything we do.

  The definition of the book itself is up for grabs.

  Asked how he felt about Apple’s 30-percent cut for books published to the iBookstore:

  This is better than the equivalent print agency model, in which publishers let retailers keep 50 percent.
