now, if you would rather talk about today's news,
instead of warmed-up stuff from 2 months back,
consider that amazon announced today that --
starting sometime later this year -- people will
be able to borrow books from their local libraries
by using their kindles...
_or_ by using one of the free kindle apps, which
you might recall run on a myriad of hardware...
odds are that there is a free kindle app that will
run on _some_ piece of equipment that you own.
so if you are in the neighborhood of one of the
11,000 local libraries involved with the program,
the world of electronic-books just got a lot bigger.
a whole lot bigger.
once again, amazon leads the way. thank you jeff.
