SpiderWorks eBooks are specifically designed for on-screen reading, setting
SpiderWorks apart from other eBook publishers.

"For years, most publishers have been producing eBooks with page dimensions
that match those of traditional printed books. While that vertical format
may work well for physical books, it's not well-suited for viewing pages on
the widescreen dimensions of a computer monitor," said Dave Wooldridge,
President of SpiderWorks, LLC. "Beyond that, many eBooks in the marketplace
tend to be nothing more than scanned electronic versions of their printed
counterparts, failing to take advantage of the rich, interactive potential
of this digital medium. We aim to break the existing mold for eBooks,
offering a more intuitive on-screen experience for our readers."

SpiderWorks eBooks utilize an innovative horizontal page format designed by
renown graphics expert and Mac author, Robin Williams. Optimized for easy
on-screen reading, yet also perfect for printing on 8.5" x 11" paper in
landscape mode, SpiderWorks eBooks are uniquely formatted and hyperlinked
for fast access and quick learning.

How-to books on new technologies often take months to appear on retail
shelves, but SpiderWorks is able to bypass those traditional print
production hurdles by embracing the eBook format as its primary publishing
platform, satisfying the immediate needs of today's digital lifestyles in a
timely, cost-effective manner. SpiderWorks eBooks will be priced at only
$9.95 each, with special "super-sized" eBook titles priced at only $14.95
each (US Dollars). All related companion files, examples, and software
associated with each eBook will be available free to customers online at
SpiderWorks' exclusive Customer Download Center.
