Booqs.com – Read The Best Parts From Books
Booqs champions a new way approach to the way in which non-fiction titles are usually read. Based on the premise that people have less and less time every day, what the creators of Booqs are trying to assemble is a community in which the best passages from such titles are highlighted. Users of the site are enabled to read these, and proceed to share them further on. The idea, then, is to create a broad network in which the most memorable parts and passages of books are shared.
The objective of all this is to let people get to the best parts of books instantly, and realize which ones might be worth a look more easily.
When all is said and done, an approach like the one championed by Booqs highlights how much of an impact the concept of micro-sharing has really had in how the public consumes information. More and more each day, people are moving into these sites and services that provide them with nothing but information in the exact proportion they need it (IE, a proportion that could accommodate their busy schedules). With its ability to aggregate the best bits from books and have them laid out in an easy-to-read setting, Booqs does exactly that.
