"We are not trying to redefine the tutorial, CEO of Kno Osman Rashid tells me," we are trying to redefine how you learn. " Today Kno has made great steps to more social digital textbooks through the provision of 100 000 books College at its Web site and on Facebook. Textbooks for the Facebook application and site will be presented to the reader through the HTML5 book. So that the students who buy the book through Kno in the iPad app can now read them via the Internet or on Facebook.

(In the end, it's free marketing.)

It was only in April when Kno finally gave up on their own tablet and supported iPad instead.
