I am building a lightweight ebook reader (currently ~32kB compiled) that will be used to gather statistics on how people read books, magazines, etc.
The idea being, if we know how people read we can help people learn better. Obviously, there are other uses such as improving reading speeds, comprehension, and more. Further, we can potentially learn how structuring of sentences can effect peoples interest and learning as well.

Currently, I need help with cleaning up the project, and enabling Epubs, PDFs, and HTML files to be read.
Future goals: make it compatible with android and iOS, set up a central location of the data, improve statistics functions. The current version on github does not have any statistics, I'll update later with a fully working version of statistics.

Perhaps some effort should be put into reverse-engineering Kindle data similar to how the Apple device databases were reverse engineered? http://www.crypticbit.com/zen/products/iphoneanalyzer http://www.crypticbit.com/zen/products/iphoneanalyzer
