PowerPoint Presentation of mockups

A proposal to enhance the detail page of a book by adding a section titled
"Book reviews by critics" similar to the "Amazon reviews" section. This section
would display 5 critic reviews from idreambooks.com as per the guidelines in
iDreamBooks' API (idreambooks.com/api). 

For example, for the book MoonWalking with Einsten, the editorial review
snippets from sources like The Guardian, NYTimes, WashingtonPost, etc. would be
shown. See example of API output for the book here:
http://idreambooks.com/newbooks/api.xml?q=moonwalking+with+einstein+foer&key=example_key

In addition to the review snippets, the overall rating of the book would get
displayed on the detail page of a book to help users gauge the rating of the
book in an instant. The rating on it's own or the entire "Readometer" or both
can be displayed. For example, for the book MoonWalking with Einstein, it's
rating of 80% would be displayed under the title of the book. Alternatively,
the "Readometer" could also be displayed. 

Please see attached powerpoint presentation for images that give more detail.

We (iDreamBooks) are willing to provide development assistance to implement
these enhancements.
