I seriously love this century

Intellectually I understand that eBook readers make one able to carry their whole library around, but actually literally switching out Infinite Jest ( a monster of a book with over a thousand pages in paperback form) for my Kindle after spending $5.37 for the privilege? kind of makes it visceral for me.

 

Plus you don't need to keep switching back and forth with the footnotes! You just click!

the kindle is how i knew i was in the future, yeah. i was on a plane and on my 2nd glass of wine when i realized i was in a flying tube, holding more books than i could read in a year, plugged into a 'walkman' that had more music than i could listen to in a year. i felt like a crochety old man.

and then i fell asleep.
