It is said that Nate is a detective, a child version of Sherlock Holmes. With his dog, Sludge, Nate solves crime. In our case Nate is also a detective -- one of the best people around at digging up news about new readers and major happenings in the e-book industry.

He has been quoted in several podcasts and referenced as recently as the Kindle 2 launch in NYC. Even Wikipedia references Nate the Great as the passage below demonstrates:

Popular Culture
  • Nate the Great is mentioned in a few episodes of Between the Lions.
  • Nate the Great is now a new musical by TheatreworksUSA in the 2007-2008 and 2008-2009 seasons.
  • Nate the Great is posited by Doctor Popular in an online article[1] to be the inspiration for Emily the Strange.
  • Nate the Great is the screen name of a moderator at MobileRead [2]
Emphasis mine.

5,555 posts is simply not enough Nate. We need more Nate!
