Books
Books are a strange media indeed; one of the first to evoke
holographic tales of fiction in the minds of the masses, or to pass on
knowledge for many centuries after being written. This being the
digital age, however, books and written material are in more forms
than even Gutenberg himself did not have the insight enough to
imagine.
Once I used to read reams of dust sheathed paper, but these days I
read mostly electronic books on my Bookeen CyBook. Below is a list of
things either in dead-tree or ebook format that I have read and
enjoyed over the years.
