See.. I have never seen a Kindle in person. Don't even know a IRL person who owns one- all my IRL friends are weirdos who dont even own books, in either paper format or ebook.

Thnx for the tips of my ebook library issues- will do that

I can see now that I'm going to have to visit your house with my brothers and sisters of the Wednesday Night Kindle Witnessing Group from the 1st Assembly of Amazon and leave some K2 & DX tracts for your edification.

Overheard in the kitchen the other day at work:

Girl 1, sounding surprised: "Yeah, she went to a bookshop at lunch"
Girl 2, sounding rather shocked: "Why'd she want to do that?"
Girl 1, shrugging: "I dunno. Something to do, I guess"

Both seemed to think going to a bookshop was a very odd thing to do.

Let's just hope they both have eReaders, a huge library. But alas I don't think that's the story here

ooohhh!! I have never heard of clevenet! Checking it out now. Thanks

Oh.. is not for my area unfortunately I am in Stark county

http://www.clevnet.org/

And looking further into the Ohio Ebook project, seems the majority of their good titles are in overdrive WMA audio or MP3 format. WTF!! An ebook site, emphasis on book, should be have files more in the format of pdf, epub, ect- anything but audio. ggrr

I"m sorry..........your card has been declined.

Seems like the wrong president is on the front.

The current president is the one who is spending like there is no tomorrow.........
