book store on Windows
Microsoft is testing a new book store on Windows
BOOK STORE
Its tentacles occupy virtually every space and every segment that exists in the technology industry, from office software to artificial intelligence programs.
However, there is an area in which the company founded by Bill Gates has not been successful: the distribution of e-books. A few years ago, Microsoft tried to do a program together with Barnes & Noble to create a platform on which the Redmond giant could distribute eBooks. The pilot was a failure and the company lost $ 300 million invested in the largest bookstore in the United States.
Now Satya Nadella and her team are determined to return to the load but in a smarter way, entering through the door that gives them Windows 10.
The company has released a trial version of virtual book store in the new Windows 10 Insider update. As we know the Insider Program is a platform that has Microsoft so the community can collaborate to create better applications.
The books purchased in this store can be read in the company's browser, Microsoft Edge. In it you will have a series of options with which you can generate a better environment for reading.
According to the company the opening of this store is only the beginning in a very big effort to support the new talent and the people who want to grow or even start a new one.
One of the biggest hits that the company has recently had is the recent purchase of the social network LinkedIn and therefore the online tutor giant Lynda.com, which will make the horizon of knowledge go much further for the giant of software.
