(And it's so relaxing too )

You know Zawinski's Law?



At a certain point, e-readers and tablets will converge. The Kindle Touch already has Facebook and other social network integration. I really, really detest those Facebook / Twitter / Google+ / LinkedIn icons. I don't have any of those profiles, but still, in each and every device or program I use, I encounter them. As if anybody is interested in what I'm doing all the time.
I use social media for things that actually are social. But yes, I still am an old fashioned knitter, using two sticks and wool (often handspun on spindles). I love it and have been knitting that way for almost 40 years. (and I knit socks, too).

(edit)
As for e-readers and tablets converging, I'm not certain I want something like that. I don't know what a tablet is (is it a handheld computer or something?), but I am happy with an e-reader just being something I stick my own files on and read. I wouldn't have bought a separate, dedicated e-reader, which is expensive, otherwise. I don't even use the wifi on it except to nab a library book.
