Read? Paper? Huh?

Read? Paper? Huh?
I love to read. I used to do it all the time. But today, I hardly ever
read books.

Instead, I use the Web for all my reading needs. I've hit a point in
my life when I'm very interested in current world events, and what
better way to stay up on that than with the help of online news sites
and direct sources like Congress.gov that provide outstanding
information on all the issues facing the U.S.? On average, I spend
about two hours each weekday reading the news and perusing different
sites that take an in-depth look into current events.

There is one caveat that I should mention: I subscribe to The New York
Post, a prominent New York City newspaper. Even though it's available
for free online, I love reading the Post each day in my recliner
because it gives me a chance to step away from the computer for a
while. Oh, and the Yankees coverage is outstanding. For me, that's a
major selling point.

Dan, I agree with you for the most part, reading is going digital, not to mention the fact that digital offers so much more than just text in terms of video, images, sound, etc etc etc. However, I still do read "old fashioned" books :-) Not necessary to consume the contents of a book in hard copy format anymore I know, but sometimes it's nice, I don't know, something about the tactile feel perhaps.
