New iPad is great

Around noon, I went to local Apple store and tried out new iPad. It is great. The line for purchase is not long. I saw people were happy to setup their new iPad there. The box is smaller than one for iPad 1.

Mac mini and Apple iBooks Author

When Apple announced iBooks Author, I was very excited since it provide a lot of people to have book published.

Since this free iBooks Author is only run Mac, I did some research on what kind of Mac I would get. We only had iPod Touch, iPhone, and iPad; never had any Mac before. After one week research and two visits of local Apple store, I decided to get a Mac mini and ordered 8GB memory with it from Amazon.com. I enjoy this Mac mini very much since I got it. I have been working on my first ebook with the Mac mini and iBooks Author with all the pictures I took in last ten years. I carefully picked up over 300 pictures to create a ebook called "Pictures from Beijing" and turned into Apple ibookstore as free book.

Photography has been my main hobby many years. I study photography through books, magazines, clubs, going out with friends, and taking pictures. I am very glad now I can put all my collection to ebooks.

As I am working on this first ebook, I learn a lot on how to use iBooks Author. Now, I am working on my second ebook and wish to publish it soon.
