TÖRdötCÖM (April Fool)
Yea I know a few days late but I just notice the post today.
http://www.tor.com/index.php?option=...=blog&id=20331 Quite funny. Sometime I do wonder how close this is to some publisher thought on ebooks. Quote:

Oh. My. God.
That is hilarious! I'm glad the folks at Mobileread decided to append all the April Fools' joke titles with "(April Fool)". I was going to suggest it, but thought I'd come off as being too PC or something. We all knew any articles on 4/1 had to be read with a grain of salt, but I could see some poor newbie doing a random search 6 months from now, and getting all ticked off that Tor thought ebook readers were all "alpha geeks" (or some other such nonsense).
