I don't know if you've heard about this recent "multimedia feature" from the 
New York Times called Snow Fall: the Avalanche at Tunnel Creek, but it's worth 
checking out:

It's an interesting mixture of what the online experience is like today: short 
paragraphs punctuated with images, stories, video, semi-3D experiences, and 
slideshows.  You have to admit it's pretty well done.  Putting aside the cost 
and time needed to create a textbook that contained all these elements for 
every chapter I was just wondering if a psych book created in this fashion 
would result in more reading time/engagement/satisfaction from students.  I 
suppose it would.  Thoughts?
