About bookpic
Bookpic turns every print publication into a community
With Bookpic, a whole new social experience awaits you between the lines of your favorite magazines, books, photos, even product catalogs!
Bookpic is a great way to share discoveries and ideas with friends – and to find new friends who share your interests and passions.
Best of all, with the powerful Bookpic Web-based eViewer, your comments become a part of the story because they appear right there on the page – and on Twitter and Facebook, too!
1. Building Communities Between the Lines
With Bookpic, your thoughts and ideas become chat-tags that you pin directly onto the e-book pages and photos, in any spot you wish. Like actors on a stage, chat-tags interact to form a thriving social scene... smack dab between the lines. Every chat-tag you create
also fires off a tweet or Facebook update to keep your wider circle of friends and followers up to date on what’s hot and happening in your Bookpic community. It’s not just community members who chat-tag. Look closely and you’re likely to see chat-tags from the stars, models and other celebrities featured in the publication you’re reading, or by the authors and photographers behind the scenes. Sometimes celebs will "chat-tag and run," but often they’ll stick around and carry on extended conversations with their fans. Who can blame them – Bookpic communities are fun for everyone!
2. Live Updates
With Bookpic, publications are continuously updated and refreshed by their owners and editors. You’ll never have to wait for the latest insider tips and comments, video clips or product information – not to mention special shopping deals for members of the Bookpic community. Bookpic publications are new and different every time you open them. That’s what Bookpic is all about.
3. A New Way to Read Altogether!
Bookpic lets you and your friends enjoy a rich and varied world of online content and services simply by clicking the links sprinkled throughout Bookpic publications. It’s easy to purchase featured merchandise, view related videos on YouTube and Ustream, hop over to the official website and blog of showcased artists, or take the pulse of other Bookpic community members on any topic of shared interest.
