eReading - New General Group on LibraryThing

After starting a group over the weekend called eReader, I decided to delete that one because the real focus and interest for me is eReading, which I think is a more accurate name for this group.

I apologized to the few people who posted over the weekend. Hope this doesn't create too much of a problem. I'll repost your messages and hope to hear from you again!

Description: Discussion for eReading aficionados, on all types of devices, e.g., Sony Reader, Kindle, Palm, Phones, etc.

Share and exchange your *experience* reading etext from various sources and in whatever format for books, Gutenberg.org, Archive.org, Google, and so forth.

eReading is about the *experience* of reading on electronic devices--is the quality of the experience the same, different, richly imaginative and fulfilling, informative, as with a traditional book? What do you like or prefer about eReading? Dislikes, difficulties? How would you like the devices improved?

Provocations:

Does eReading complement and augment the traditional Book and Library or replace them?

It seems to me there's a need for a general group reflecting on the qualitative impact of new methods of reading.

Hope people agree!

If so, you're invited: eReading on LibraryThing
