A friend tells me:
"I plan to post a blog today which dumps on your "screening" term. Don't > take that personally. It's my absolute conviction that we don't need to > create a new term because we believe reading on screen is somehow different; > instead, we need to fix reading on screen. Creating a new term is admitting > defeat, when I know - for sure - we can win. > > I think if we play this right, there's a great campaign to be run. > Journalists "get" reading - technology companies don't. \ > \I believe that if I can explain my case and the work I have been doing > to the right journalists we can create pressure to make the technology > companies do what needs to be done.....to make READING ON SCREENS almost the same as reading on paper...so there is no need for your new word of SCREENING...sorry..." 1 person has voted this message useful | |

another expert says:
''I am not sure what to say. I read on a screen almost all day long. I enjoy my newspaper and books as well. but doesn't now seem that reading-on-screen is what people do for several hours, therefore not a controversial thing? the web even is made up of "pages." the new thing is paying for reading on screens-- bravo to amzn for proving that that works.'' 1 person has voted this message useful | |
