iFOGO™ (iFOGO™.com) is a global community comprised of
authors, booksellers, book-lovers, printers, editors, poets, film producers,
agents, music artists, and other creative individuals. We have created an
environment where all meet to create, share and enjoy the magic of books and
other inspired media.
Why?
FOR YOU, THE BOOK BUYER
For too long, those buying books, and those who create books,
have shared a fairly sterile and arms-length relationship facilitated by third
parties—booksellers. All have existed in a symbiotic relationship never bridging
the gap which would allow for a more intimate connection. A buyer goes to a
store, or goes online, peruses the selection, makes a choice, buys the book, CD
or DVD, and goes his or her way. iFOGO™ changes all that.

THE RESULT?
We feel the result will be buyers

form relationships with new ones. One is brought “up close, and personal” to
writers and their works.
