1. Facebook
Recognizes Kobo
as eReading
Partner
A


In January 2012, Kobo was invited
   by Facebook to the launch of
   Facebook Timeline. The only
   official eReading partner, Kobo
   made it known to the world that it
   was advancing its social reading
   experience with Facebook.
2. Some Call it Self-Promotion, We Call it AMAZING!
2




    Kobo is currently working on its self-publishing offering helping
    indie authors and everyday people share their stories with the
    world. With our commitment to social innovation, you know this is
    going to be awesome.
3. HTML5 – What?!




Kobo users on iPad or using Chrome/Safari (desktop) can now use the
Kobo Instant Reader. It gives readers the ability to buy and read books
in the browser – syncing to any device. It’s just more of Kobo doing what
we can to help customers read the way they want to. A smartphone app
is coming soon as well as support for IE and Firefox.
4. Facebook and Kobo DO
Integrate Social Reading
and eBooks




As the official eReading
partner of Facebook, Kobo
gives readers a way to
seamlessly highlight text and
post it to Facebook to
generate conversations.
5. And We Go Even
FURTHER With
Author Notes

We’ve started a new program
Author Notes, it enables
authors to provide additional
commentary in their books – the
“director’s cut” if you will. Fans
can now get more out of their
fave books and share their
thoughts with authors and other
readers.
6. Kobo’s Read Freely Philosophy Appeals To Partners Like
Facebook, Authors And Readers




In just 27 months of business, Kobo has captured the hearts of 8-million users across 190 countries
with content in 60 languages and 2.5-million titles. With the ability to read on virtually any device –
smartphone, laptop, tablet, or eReader – the fan base continues to grow at a rapid pace.
7. Music and Reading – It’s
More Than Just Tunes




The Kobo Vox™ eReading
tablet comes with the Rdio™
app to get the latest tunes
while you’re reading. Even
better? Kobo provides
access to thousands of
Android apps and with our
much anticipated integration
with Google Play (coming
soon) customers will be
reading – and so much
more!
8. Open and Social it’s Like Facebook and Kobo Were
Born to Be Connected


Kobo’s commitment to
reading anywhere, at
any time, and on any
device is what drives
us each day. It’s our
passion to make
reading a fun,
enjoyable experience.
Our partnership with
Facebook is one more
way we are
transforming reading
around the world.
