			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>iBooks Author is a brand new FREE application from Apple. It&#8217;s a publishing tool for creating interactive eBooks that can be read, listened to and watched (yes these books can include audio and video) using the FREE iBooks app on an iPad. iBooks Author enables you to explore your world in ways you never thought possible &#8211; it&#8217;s all at your fingertips.<span id="more-1173"></span>The latest company to jump onto the mobile learning bandwagon is Apple who in January released iBooks Author &#8211; a FREE tool which allows anyone to create interactive learning materials that can be accessed on a mobile device.</p>
<p>I look forward to showing you how to build an interactive book using iBooks Author. I&#8217;ve been creating training materials for over 20 years but it&#8217;s never been this much fun to create content. I&#8217;ll cover best practice as well as pointing out the gotchas of this new and exciting game-changing software. </p>
<p>Feel free to download the interactive <a href="http://egiles.me/mb64ibook" title="FREE MacBites iBook" target="_blank">MacBites iBook</a> I created to accompany the event, it&#8217;s almost 100 pages showcasing all the features of iBooks Author.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[The iPad 3rd Generation screen is completely astounding, it's something that really needs to be seen to be believed. Check out these screencaps.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I well recall when Steve Jobs announced iPhone 4 and eulogised about the retina display. I must confess I was not really excited by it as a feature. I was hosting live coverage of the announcement at the time and the consensus of those in the chatroom was the same. </p>
<p>Of course only a few days later and I like everyone else was blown away by the quality of the display I had in my hand.</p>
<p>Fast forward a couple of years and two iPad versions later and today I was awaiting the delivery of the first iPad model to sport a retina display. Despite the lessons of last time I&#8217;ll admit I was still not prepared for the extent of the difference discernable between iPad 2 and the third Generation iPad.</p>
<p>First, was a comparison of the photographic site <a href="http://500px.com" target="_blank">500px</a> displayed in Safari &#8211; there was a noticeable difference.</p>
<p><img src="http://elainegiles.co.uk/mVAhpv9bi8XuJ23fUnHF/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/500px-comparison.jpg" alt="iPad 2 screen display v. iPad 3rd generation retina display" title="iPad Screen Comparison" width="600" height="225" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1186" /></p>
<p><a href='http://elainegiles.co.uk/mVAhpv9bi8XuJ23fUnHF/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/ipad_screencomparison.zip'>Download full resolution comparison images</a>.</p>
<p>The difference is even more obvious as you zoom in:<br />
<img src="http://elainegiles.co.uk/mVAhpv9bi8XuJ23fUnHF/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/time_ipad2.jpg" alt="iPad 2 display zoomed in" title="iPad 2 display" width="350" height="350" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1190" /></p>
<p><img src="http://elainegiles.co.uk/mVAhpv9bi8XuJ23fUnHF/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/time_ipad3rdgen.png" alt="iPad 3rd Generation retina display zoomed in" title="iPad 3rd Generation" width="350" height="350" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1191" /></p>
<p>However, even that didn&#8217;t prepare me for the infinite improvement in the display of 2x apps designed for iPhone. A particular annoyance for me has always been the lack of a dedicated iPad version of the Spotify app, but just look at the improvement in the display of Spotify from iPad 2 to the new iPad.</p>
<p><a href="http://elainegiles.co.uk/mVAhpv9bi8XuJ23fUnHF/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/comparison.jpg"><img src="http://elainegiles.co.uk/mVAhpv9bi8XuJ23fUnHF/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/comparison.jpg" alt="" title="Spotify Comparison" width="600" height="232" class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1194" /></a></p>
<p><img src="http://elainegiles.co.uk/mVAhpv9bi8XuJ23fUnHF/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/2x_ipad2.jpg" alt="" title="Spotify on iPad 2 at 2x" width="350" height="350" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1195" /></p>
<p><img src="http://elainegiles.co.uk/mVAhpv9bi8XuJ23fUnHF/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/2x_ipad3rdgen.jpg" alt="" title="Spotify on iPad retina display at 2x " width="350" height="350" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1196" /></p>
<p>Suffice it to say the iPad 3rd Generation screen is completely astounding, it&#8217;s something that really needs to be seen to be believed.</p>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;font-family:  Helvetica;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;border-spacing:  5px 5px;
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;border: 3px solid #ccc;
