"Did you get that new book? Which book? You know, that new book? Ohhhh, that book? Yeah, I got it on my E-Book, want to read it?" Whatever happened to snuggling up in bed on a cold winter night underneath a huge comforter and reading a great book? Now, though you can enjoy a good read during the winter, more than likely it's taking place with an E-Book in your hand. More and more people are purchasing books online. Many people see it as being much more convenient and easier to manage and finish. There are several consumers that take advantage of having an E-Book, such as students, travelers and the visially impaired. What's better than going to the beach to get a tan, with a lovely E-Book in your hand? Though the idea of the E-Book is pretty cool, it's just a little odd to me. I "kindasorta" enjoy manually holding on to my book and highlighting it myself with my new pack of highlighters. Call me old-fashioned, WHATEVER! :)
Today, many people are buying electronic books for their iPhone and BlackBerry. It's so convenient to catch up with their readings on their personal smartphones while waiting on their lunch date. Whenever there's that downtime, there's always time to pick up the iPhone and catch up on the last few pages of that chapter. Though I haven't considered getting into E-Books, but I wouldn't mind downloading a few just for fun and whenever I have free time I could use it on reading. Reading is fundamental, right?
In today's society, it's imperative that we move with time because time stops for no one. The same way time doesn't stop, it seems like new technology developments aren't stopping for anyone who is lagging behind.
Do any of you own an E-Book? Let me know!

Ebooks are becoming popular, but I think etextbooks are going to be the next big thing. I haven't bought any yet, but just the idea of having it on my computer seems more convenient as I can ctrl+F and search for specific terms.
