Now there's similar moves in books. <br /><br />In my work world I use eStuff all of the time now and less paper as a result. However, there are certain types of document (like when its being reviewed) which still benefit from a paper copy. Its much easier to flick through, re-arrange and so forth in a non-linear way with paper.<br /><br />However, my suposition is that eBooks will progressively encroach in two ways, both as electronically readable (batteries not included) and as on demand publishing. <br /><br />...and then what about magazines??rashbrehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01138427049001650099noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12285157.post-70467364910709249822009-05-01T07:39:00.000-07:002009-05-01T07:39:00.000-07:00(silly me) my last note was supposed to end: Oh by...(silly me) my last note was supposed to end: Oh by the way, NO need to be anonymous here.

The environmental argument is clearly one in favor of ebooks.<br /><br />But, almost as important is the fact that people can now search books -- the ability to search (instantaneously across your entire library) will allow readers to learn far more and far better than the current (previous?) method.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
