Joho the Blog » Kindle, e-books, libraries…

The future of book nostalgia:
Anthony Grafton’s New Yorker article on why libraries will always be with us shows the power of book nostalgia.

As parents we need to fight to let the Internet we love be a settled part of our children’s lives.

By the way, Everything Is Miscellaneous is available for Kindle. Cluetrain is not.
Also by the way, I just got a link from Urs Gasser to his contribution to a recent conference on the future of books.
