Hi!
I love reading good books, and I wish I had the time to read more than I do... There's so many things I'd like to do if I had more free time...
Time!!! Where are you?
As I spend so many hours in front of teh computer, I thought it was a good idea to read an e-book... What a silly thing to do!! I really didnt like it! I prefer paper books, with new or odl covers...it doesnt matter. I think Im not gonna read an e-book again!
The same with pictures. I like to take picturs with the digital camera, but i like also to print them and see them on paper, in an album and not in the computer or TV. What do you think?

Yes, paper books have some qualities that e-books will never do. Not only covers, pictures, the sound when you turn to another page... and last but not least the smell of book! I know that some people dislikes that kind of odour, but when I sniff at my favorite book, a lot of memories come to me even before I start read it again... A bit sentimental, maybe, but why not?
Still, sometimes I read e-books on my cellphone. I have few of them always prepared for situations when I don't have any paper book available or when I just finished the paper one and don't have any other along (in my favorite coffee lounge for example).

I do like to read articles on my computer but I could never read a whole book. I think even a short e-book is less enjoyable to read than a real book.
I like to look at photos on the internet, but reproductions of art never look as good on the screen as they do on the page.
