Haste yee back 😉

I’m too busy nosing about and talking to people to bother with cracking the books. As a result, several books have been left behind in far flung places –I think one is in a hotel in Jaipur, if anyone is interested.

But I lust after an ebook reader. Space is a great reason – I only have so much space on my shelves. I’ll clean them out every 6 months, and rearrange everything, and it’ll be double-stacked again before I know it. Another reason for my lust is when traveling. The last trip I took (for work), I brought 5 books with. While out of town, I bought another 3. With an ebook reader, I wouldn’t have had to figure out how to lug ’em all home. And how could I not like the idea of taking my entire library with me, anywhere? =)

One thing about all this “electronic” stuff -web or kindle, is eye fatigue. As I get older, my eyes feel strained after awhile on the electronic stuff.
I also notice that when I read electronic stuff, my eyes tend to skip lines and words.

But yeah, I wonder about dropping it in the tub, or the batteries running down and finding that I’ve forgotten my charger. And quite frankly… I don’t look forward to packing yet another charger when I travel!

Kindles don’t mildew and their pages can’t get foxed. You don’t have to cram 50 of them into a box and then end up hefting dozens of boxes around. Still, even a Luddite can open a book. And books never need batteries.

I live in New York and have limited space, so the more books I can hold on it, the better. The Kindle also takes up the same space in my bag whether I’m reading Acacia or Gatsby. I have a limited budget, and Amazon is offering killer deals on a lot of Kindle sales. Also, regular e-books are hard to read on the screen; sometimes I want to read them and simply can’t handle staring at the screen after a day of work. I can put most e-books onto my Kindle and read more comfortably.

I could probably write a sonnet to my Kindle…but those are the top reasons I love it. I don’t think I’ll ever completely let go of print books, but I’m a big e-reader fan.

I love both for different reasons :)I would be interested to see what the breakdown is for 21 and younger – what % use kindles vs books. That is the future consumer and our market now.

But casual readers, particularly those who have a fondness for gadgets, will gravitate towards e-books.

There’s a lot more of the latter online, particularly dominating tech discussions, which is why we hear so much doom in those circles about print books. (The Internet is not exactly the best focus group for examining the values of print media.) Yet, e-books offers great opportunities to hook more of that audience into reading more books, which ultimately is great for publishing.
