Ryu told Wired he felt a little hurt, but he remains loyal to Apple and isn't "planning on picking a fight." (A reader pointed out that Shipley is now an Apple employee, but that doesn't appear to be the case based on Shipley's recent Twitter post stating, "I guess it's not enough Apple has hired every employee who worked on Delicious Library, they also had to copy my product's look. However, he asked Delicious Library creator Wil Shipley for his blessing before Classics was released. Interestingly, however, Phillip Ryu, one of the people behind Classics, acknowledges that Classics' bookshelf view was inspired by another app, Delicious Library. The only major difference is iBooks has a tool to change font point and type." Also, Apple's app integrates access to the iBooks store, which will feature titles from Penguin, Harper Collins, Simon & Schuster, Macmillan, and Hachette book group. "The 3D page-flipping effect looks almost exactly the same. "The pages emulate the look of a printed book page," Chen writes. The article also suggests that the UI similarities extend beyond the top-level interface. The app in question is a popular book-reading app called Classics, which rounds up a bunch of public-domain titles in a slick-looking package that features a user interface with various titles perched on a bookshelf. If you're among those wondering why Apple's new iBooks e-reader app may have looked vaguely familiar, the answer is Apple may have ripped off the user interface from an existing iPhone app, according to Wired blogger Brian Chen. ![]()
