I love old family photos. Thanks for sharing. <BR/><BR/>One the reading, this just popped into my head. Does a book of poetry or short stories fall in the category of magazines and on line reading and does reading a novel on line (albeit, waiting daily for the next excerpt) compare to reading a novel on paper? I have had the luxury of reading a book on line as the author is writing it. I caught up, then I keep up. She has giving me the first chapters of her book to read on paper, as well, so I read a lot of it twice. Because it was on paper and not in book form, it still felt different. For me, the place I read each is different. I read online in a chair in the office, I read a book or magazine in bed before sleeping or sitting in a comfy chair. I read the newspaper at the table usually with a cup of coffee. Each has it's extra elements involved as well.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8311151968716514867.post-66060981647734628402008-04-13T13:33:00.000-07:002008-04-13T13:33:00.000-07:00Beth I just lust over the list of books, the speed...Beth I just lust over the list of books, the speed of download..the sheer range of choice.<BR/><BR/>*sigh*orenetahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10616103982088424715noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8311151968716514867.post-3354954630698804662008-04-13T04:31:00.000-07:002008-04-13T04:31:00.000-07:00You were adorable!

The other thing to remember with the readers is that they have the potential to be fantastic for people with visual problems because you can enlarge the font size enormously, which means that people are not dependent on magnifying glasses and large print editions...Xavier Maciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02233917771081163755noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8311151968716514867.post-69614693348501777422008-04-11T19:34:00.000-07:002008-04-11T19:34:00.000-07:00awwww so cute!
