Rainey Day: Electronic Readers VS. Books
http://rminke01.blogspot.com/2009/11/electronic-readers-vs-books.html
Sunday, November 29, 2009. Electronic Readers VS. Books. Amazon just released the Kindle 2, just in time for the holidays, and other electronic companies like Sony and RCA are making sure to get their feet in the door too! The question is, are electronic readers better than books? More popular than books? Will they ever replace books? As far as libraries go, many of them can't afford to replace lost Kindles, they can hardly afford to replace regular books. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Rainey Day: DVDs and Extinction
http://rminke01.blogspot.com/2009/11/dvds-and-extinction.html
Sunday, November 29, 2009. This weekend, during a black friday shopping spree, I heard a lot of hallabaloo about which TV's were the best and do I want a DVD player or a Bluray player? I got to talking with my husband about how crappy it would be if DVDs were almost obsolete, because I still haven't switched all of my VHSs over DVD and if I had to convert all of my DVDs to microbytes or something, that would suck! The only issue I have with these alternative ways rent videos, is that many movies never ma...

The Big, Bad Blog. Monday, November 30, 2009. 8220;Your I-Phone is I-nnoying! Last year, my early adopter friend snagged an I-phone, and wasn’t afraid to use it. Whether she was texting while meeting her boyfriend’s parents at a restaurant, updating her Facebook status, or playing her music, her I-phone was always there for her. In fact, her boyfriend got so annoyed that he commented on her new toy: “Your I-phone is I-nnoying! November 30, 2009 at 11:15 AM. November 30, 2009 at 8:35 PM. This is an intere...
