thing 35

i signed up for twitterlit and dailylit and looked at a few other sites as well. i don't really think i'll get into either of these services. i also don't expect that electronics will completely take over printed books either. at our library, i only get a few questions every once in a while about audio books and downloading them. of course, a good portion of our patrons are here for our computers, books are still a hot item as well. although i don't really see any right or wrong way to read (online or print), people will always have preferences for one or the other and people like myself will provide the audience for printed books.
also, i don't see any reason for anyone to be hostile to any of the services/ideas put forth by the book 2.0 tools/sites. i think that if you use them correctly they weill enhance your reading experience becuase you will be introduced to new things and have the opportunity to discuss your reads with others. if you don't like it, don't use it.
