About Me

This is mostly a list of things that I've come across out there that I found interesting. I wanted somewhere I could keep all the images/videos/quotes/ideas that I loved. If anyone's looking, I hope you find some things on here that spark your interest!

  1. My Dad recently bought one of these, and he really loves it too. I’m so torn when it comes to the Kindle.  On one hand, I can see how it could be really useful, and it saves trees, and I think the electronic-ink technology is really cool.  On the other hand, I’m a totally book-worm, and I think the experiences of shopping for books, owning books, and reading books just aren’t the same without those tiny differences in font, paper quality and type, and cover design.  I even have a problem with the Advanced Readers Copies I get from work (at a bookstore) because they almost all have the same font and layout so none of them have any personality.  I think a big part of falling in love with a book is the relationship you have with it on a physical level.  I’ll have to stick with my good old fashioned physical book for now, but I definitely think the Kindle has promise. tiffany: I’m quicky falling in love with the Kindle. I didn’t think I would like it, but we’re really bonding sitting here in the airport waiting to fly to Utah and reading a teenage vampire book together.
