We get to see quite a lot of software that promisses great things and most of us (I imagine) are fairly sceptical – no bad thing I say.
This reading ’manager’ looks interesting, a simple idea but the thinking is sound enough in that it focusses on the ability of the reader – helping to find really appropriate books for them. The software doesn’t set out to be the teacher – always a good sign.
