mapping the future of reading

Mission

Bookfuturism.com is a digital commons and multi-user blog open to anyone interested in the future of reading. It's also a social network for bookfuturists - men and women who believe that books, bookshops, libraries, publishers, newspapers, authors, and readers have a future -- albeit one that may be radically different from the present -- and who want to participate in that future.

A Little of Everything: My Bookfuturist Sampler

Submitted by vsandbrook on Thu, 02/04/2010 - 12:34pm

I've been thinkig about how I'd debut myself on this site since I joined a few days ago (2 days and 2 hours ago according to my account log), and I've finally decided that my position on a few key (or at least timely) issues will suffice, even though I run the risk of repeating some of what's been said. If you've had an in-dept discussion on the site at one point or another, just point the way and I'll mosy over to comment. With any luck, though, this will add something to the conversation anyway.
