iPhone’s Classics Lets You Turn Pages, Add Bookmarks

Jason Santa Maria showed me this awesome new iphone application.

From MacWorld: When you first launch Classics, the interface looks like a bookcase with the book covers facing you. You can double-tap on a book to begin reading it or tap and drag to rearrange the books.

Classics features animated page turns and sound effects, so you get the feeling of actually reading a book. Swiping your finger to left advances the page and going right turns the page back. The interface also includes a home button and a button to list the chapters of book.

If you are reading a book and exit the application, a visual bookmark is placed on the page where you exited, making it easy to pick up where you left off.

Just take a book off the shelf and settle down for a nice quiet read…
