bu Writer’s Markup Language

Under Development

In this digital age, I believe that books must evolve into a web of knowledge much

like web sites, cross-linked to each other and shareable by URLs.

The buk platform aims to make this sensible idea come true. So far, we transformed

48000+ classics into URL accessible content integrated with Wikipedia Lookup, all

accessible by any device. No proprietary devices or apps are required.

Please enjoy progresses we make by visiting http://buk.io and join the journey by

sharing your ideas and feedbacks to [email protected].

Thank you.

Personal Message Minsu Kang, CEO BUK.IO

1. Great ExpectationsWe spent as much money as we could, and got as little for it as people could make up their minds to give us. We were always more or less miserable, and most of our acquaintance were in the same condition. There was a gay fiction among us that we were constantly enjoying ourselves, and a skeleton truth that we never did. To the best of my belief, our case was in the last aspect a rather common one.

2. David Copperfield“It was as true,” said Mr. Barkis, “as turnips is. It was as true,” said Mr. Barkis, nodding his nightcap, which was his only means of emphasis, “as taxes is. And nothing’s truer than them.”

3. Bleak HouseThe father of this pleasant grandfather, of the neighbourhood of Mount Pleasant, was a horny-skinned, two-legged, money-getting species of spider who spun webs to catch unwary flies and retired into holes until they were entrapped.
