Which one of these activities do you dedicate more time to?
In other (crude) words, are you a book worm or a tech freak?
Edit: could an admin please add this option to the poll: Hanging out on MobileRead and correct the typo in the title of the poll: to -> do Last edited by daviddem; 12-17-2008 at 08:38 PM. |

Oh god, absolutely reading. But I do spend time working on my list of what to read on my book spreadsheet, and I also read on my breaks at work and whatnot.
I also just buy my books on the Sony store, too lazy for the other stuff. In short, total bookworm. |

Good tech allows me to spend very little time in organizing the ebooks.
The real time stealing culprit over the past several months has been work. Yes, I know I should not use four letter words in this family orientated forum and I am sorry that I had to use that one. PLease forgive me. |

How I wish I spent more time organizing my books. How I wish I spent ANY time organising my books. How I wish my books were organised. Looking for an ebook book is nothing like looking for a needle in a haystack, it is more like looking for a needle in a needle stack.

One of those things I have to do, along with organizing my MP3, organizing my videos, organizing my software install backups, organizing my game saves .... Anyone know a way to remove the need for sleep? It should make things easier ... Well, except that I would surely use that time to collect more things rather than organizing them |
