Hello from a returning lurker
I had a good lurk around here 18 months ago when I was choosing an e-reader and found the forum very useful but did not feel the need to register.
I subsequently bought a Kindle. I love it. I find I am reading more because it is so convenient and I especially appreciate not having to haul kilos of books around with me (I seem to be drawn to long reads). I am back because I want to discuss the apparent lack of reading data recording by e-readers which I think is currently a missed opportunity for both readers and publishers. I'll kick that off in the General Discussions area... Meanwhile here are some lists: My all time best reads The Grapes of Wrath Crime and Punishment Dune Recent good reads Anathem The City & The City Blindness Currently reading A Feast for Crows The Fourth Paradigm: Data-Intensive Scientific Discovery My user name and avatar are in homage to my enchantment with Chaucer's prose while studying The Pardoner's Tale for my English Literature O-Level in the 1980s, BTW. -- Radix malorum est Cupiditas Last edited by Pardoner; 06-22-2012 at 06:18 AM. |
