This is great feedback, thank you!

Yes desktops aren't very suitable for book reading -- can't lie down and read, mouse feels clunky and a portrait book is pushed into a landscape screen. Yet a lot of people do read on their desktops. I have noted all the inputs from you to optimize it better for the desktop.

Bubblin currently is iPad first.

We are not only responsive but also maintain the presentation/story telling aspect of the book page-by-page no matter which device you're on (Supported on 42 Android/mobile devices). Sorry about the stuck-mouse-click bug though :(

I will fix it soon.

Unlike Amazon or other distribution platforms we sort of broadcast books online. So the reader doesn't have to download or manage it before he/she could start reading.

It also means community aspect, more eyeballs to early writers/freelancers who want wider readership and simpler publishing that works just like blogs. etc. etc.

That's about it.

I am on it, already.

You needn't signup to read books on bubblin. So when you signed up you're mostly looking at it like a "writer/creator" of books. That should explain the internal interface a bit.

But I do agree that user on-boarding or it has to be dead simple.

It does help a lot. Thanks for taking the time to look at Bubblin.

A prototype is ready, but a few modules are left.
