Thumbs up Newb from San Diego
Hello!

I've always been a firm believer in reading physical books. But starting today, I've converted myself into an e-reader. I like to read multiple books at once, and I finally got tired of carrying 3-4 books everywhere. I chose the Kobo Touch because I like its size and it was cheap enough for a recent college grad. I have to thank my humanities professor for getting me into reading and for introducing me to Nietzsche's work. I hope to read and share my thoughts with this new found community. I'm a complete newb to e-reading so any tips and tricks would be much appreciated.

Best,
Nietzsche

Nietzsche is one of the most enjoyable of all philosophers to read. It's not for nothing that he's been called by a wit the "King of the One-Liners."

Welcome to MobileRead, Nietzsche!

Good news, Nietzsche: Amazon has that wonderful Penguin edition of Walter Kaufman's translation of many of Nietzsche's most influential works, The Portable Nietzsche. (I don't know why Inkmesh doesn't have a listing on it.)

Better News (for you): An ePub version is available in the Kobo eBooks store!

It's one of my favorite collections of writings.

My mistake on Inkmesh. They list several sites that carry The Portable Nietzsche.
