Aristotle Pushing Information & eReaders

Today's Conclusion:

Sony Sucks

Kindle is Pleasant

iPhone is Portible

Now for the MEAT:

There's a certain writer whose books I devour.

He's been called "The Artistotle of the Information Age."

Subscribe (top right) because his identity will be a suprise and you want to know, trust me.
If Anyone can guess who this magnificent writer is, Twitter me @30abchgrl leave a comment.

If you must leave and never find out, I understand, there's just too much good info out there and you can't wait.

BUT I aspire to be a beacon (not the George Bush type of Beacon, Silly!). One day I hope this blog will be that for you.

He's been called a lot of names but Mr. Aristotle of the Information Age can't be named or categorized among any other person or writer in history.

He writes like his mama's not in the audience.

Current State: Experiencing Deep Withdrawals.

The good news is: while I've been rationing his words, like a crack junkie, he's published more crack. And I'm sure it's just as good and hopefully better (it's never as good as the first time), than his last couple of batches. Truthfully, two of his books have already blown my mind, equally, well, in different ways.

ebook Reader Devices: A Quick Run-Down

Why chop down all those trees? Why lug books around? Why not publish your own book? Think of the money and time you'll save on all ends of the equation. I know it's rather creepy that we humans are now reading off of screens instead of paper books. But Come ON. it IS the future. We partied like it was 1999 ten years ago!

Ebooks are going to be big. There's no stopping it.

Choosing an ebook Reader Device can be a daunting task, simply because there's lots to choose from , and none seem to be the "ultimate Reader" to buy. Also, the technology of Reading Devices on the drawing room floor far surpass the ones on market now.

BUT if you must buy one today (and I don't blame you), these 3 seem to be drawing the most attention:

• The Amazon Kindle
• The Sony PRS-505
• iRex iLiad Book Edition
  

The Kindle and the Sony are the least expensive of the three. And the iRex is supposed to be the Cream of the Crop. Of course the new Iphone3G has the ability to operate as a Reader too. What doesn't the thing do! But some claim the screen is too small to really enjoy reading on it.
