I was reading on my kindle the other day and a co-worker who has been thinking about getting his first ereader asked: what got me started reading ereaders to begin with.
"Well I'll tell you" I said "I have always been a rather voracious reader and the number of books in my library was getting a little out of hand, in fact they were threatening to take over the house. So I took to electronic reading out of necessity in an attempt to retain some living space in my home rather than letting the books take over the whole house."
What got you started in the first place?
