Eeeeeee books!

As a dedicated follower of paper, I have yet to play much with e-books. Not my preferred way to read but definitely one (just one, not the!) way of the future.

Look at NetLibrary, OCLC's contribution to the listened-word. A huge site, user friendly to search and certainly a way to go when you want your books to come in your ears rather than your eyes.
For a bit of added reading, I came across this site The Institute for the Future of the Book - some interesting articles and comments in the blog.
