 Hey guys, this is Joanna with The Verge and today Apple released their new iBooks 2 which is centered around textbooks but they also released an app for their new iTunes U. It's been a desktop app but now they're bringing it to the iPad and the iPhone. So let's take a look at it here. So iTunes U is really meant for students but anyone can actually come in here and take courses. So if I select this one here from the catalog, I obviously don't go to Yale but I can come in here and subscribe to it. I've actually already done that so I can pick that up here in the library. And so what you get here is basically a course overview. You can come right in here and watch one of the first lectures. So that's going on here. You can actually back out of this and take notes as you're listening. So if I come in here and add a new note, notes, come back out and go back out to the other posts and I can read some information. This will take me out to another outside link. I can come down here and watch a PowerPoint. So lots of information you can get here even if you aren't a student. And of course there's tons of other listings. I got this Law and Vengeance book and I made a note about how I want to be like Nilay Patel which auto-corrected to Inlay Patel. And so you can just get tons of things, lots of content in a lot of these. Some just have the lectures but overall it's just a really nice way to get higher education materials right on your iPad.
