I ran across a terrific blog post at the StarkInsider about the newness of the Kindle wearing off (here). Always a big fan of writing that makes me think, "Yeah, that's what I thought, I just wasn't able to put it so eloquently." But, this is fairly common in my life as I rarely put anything eloquently. I found it peculiar that not only was Loni Kao Stark expressing my opinions in her blog, she was also reading the books I want to read! Still, despite the author's nostaglia for reading contemporary books I find that the benefits of reading via the Kindle outweight the detriments. Short and worth reading.

I also ran across a blog that discussed and Economist article on eBooks. War on Error by John E. Dunn (here) discuss how the model for eBooks could change in the near future and book buying could become book lending with no buying ever really needed. An interesting concept to say the least. The Economist article (here) is short enought to be read quickly which is a bit stange based on my past experiences with Economist articles.

Finally there is this link (here) that is an announcement that many of the James Bond novels will shortly be available as eBooks. Appropos as that is exactly what I'm reading now. Wish I'd had the choice a month ago. Despite what Loni Kao Stark thinks, I would have preferred reading Dr. No on the Kindle.
