This is not a commercial posting as the book I am recommending is free. It is for the iPad only. It is one of the future paths for ebooks. It has videos for each page and a really cute story about a boy and his singing Dalmation, Nic Nac. Go to the iTunes ebook store and type in Box Head Man. It's longer to download because of the videos and is well worth it.

What, one wonders, is the ratio of ebooks downloaded to ebooks actually read?

If it is anything like the ratio of downloaded music to downloaded music actually listened to, the number of ebooks read is very very few...

I don't know about that, because I work with people who have an ereader and are always reading and recommending books. I don't go anywhere without mine, and read most of what I download. And if I don't have something that I want to read, I download a sample to see if I want to read it in the future.

Plenty of folks out there still think e-books are a fad.

In talking about ebooks one the greatest find I made in the last ten years is an ebook. I like to discover interesting new books, and I hit the jackpot with this one. It was available for free on it's website but now you have to buy a copy to read it. I did even thought I already read it because it is so worth it. The book is An Old Black Marble by Florin Nicoara. Check it out at anoldblackmarble.com.

Its one of the most stunning works of literature I have read, but I have to warn you, it will change the way you view the world and yourself in it. This novel is a game changer. It seems the writer is as of yet unpublished and unknown(which is odd considering what he wrote) but it won't be so for long once word spreads around.”
