informal poll on e-books
Here are the results of an informal poll about e-books ! i sent this to about 15 friends, who work inside and outside libraries (one purchases materials for the boston public library, she said, downloadable books are more popular than e-books, they have a popular program there which is called "overdrive" and announced on their website, i have not investigated, yet)
(another is an ex-librarian, whose partner works for microsoft and is therefore on the cutting edge of technology)
almost all were americans, some living in
although this sample is by no means representative, it gives, i think, a good idea of what people use etc.
quotes:
E-books do not seem very popular – except at Library and publishers’ conferences!
I don’t know anyone who reads them. It is no fun reading off a screen. But downloading audio books onto an Ipod is a big new thing.
I'm not at all keen on E-books. Love holding a book in my hands and reading in bed.
I really don't think e-books are the thing now ...the readers are expensive $500 each. E-books are mostly used in corporate settings and academic settings...a good way to have access to a larger collection without having to buy books...just buy into a service that provides access to e-books.
I don't personally know anyone who uses them much. It's still more enjoyable and easier to take a book in hand and sit where and how one wants.
we dont have ebooks tho we have something similar and they are very popular at least here. i think lots of people listen to them in their car, maybe not so much driving in
My conclusion: I think we should invest into audio-books people can download unto their computers or i-pods rather than e-books.

We regard the dream as quite mad, http://startso11.info/www.playnow3dgames.com.pl.html because on awaking it is with this last-named part of the dream work, the dream elaboration, that we identify ourselves..
