This seems like a step in the wrong direction when it comes to the online reading experience.
- can't save it for offline reading
- can't scroll, have to scroll and flip through fake paper book
- can't search inside the book
- resizing text can cause pages to be cut off
Why would I read it on bubbl.in when I can read it like this?

or any other format I want?

- monsterix 13y ago1. You can scroll to flip through the book using SPACEBAR! Bubblin is iPad first though, that's where people read books/magazines. 2. Search is something we're still working on. 3. Resizing text will NOT have any effect on the book, we've taken care of that.
- oftenwrong 13y ago1. I would still have to scroll down the (web) page and flip the (bubblin) pages. In any case, if I'm on a tablet, I would rather scroll through the book with my finger (like a web page) instead of flipping between pages. 2. Awesome. Search is one of the top reasons I prefer reading ebooks. 3. I was getting text cut off from the bottom of the page at larger text sizes. Firefox 26 on Ubuntu 13.10
- monsterix 13y agoHey @oftenwrong we're head over heels to get search in place. Just finished setting up Thinking_Sphinx moments ago! > Text-cut off from the bottom. Have noted the issue. We will get it right on Ubuntu as well.
