The Coolness Factor : Hipness rarely ages gracefully - Will Manley →
“How does the traditional book hold up against the six endurance factors? No, it’s not nearly as cool as the new and improved e-readers, but it is still easier to use. Cost? It depends on the title, the publisher, and the e-reader. Storability? The e-reader wins hands down. Quality? That depends on one’s taste. The e-reader has the advantage of backlit pages and scalable print. Durability? Glue and paper lasts longer than electrons, especially when they are programmed to dissipate after 26 circulations.”
(LOTR thoughts: Will Manley, I love you.)
