I like the design, like the choices for typefaces. I think the next step, next phase for this kind of thing, and something that would require either a new tool or modifications to existing ones, is something like an eBook format, where you can add notes to pages, incorporate your own images, etc. The idea would be to have something you can work with from a tablet. I went to a medical meeting recently, and although there was a PDF available for download, and I knew there was going to be a print version at the meeting (for free), there was much more information and pages than I needed, so I redid the PDF as an ebook, chopping out the 75 to 80% that I didn't want. What it lacked, of course, was the ability to add notes afterward.
