OK, how many of us are willing to give up turning paper pages? If you're game, a couple of possibilities were announced today: The Journal also notes that Amazon's new Kindle electronic book reader "quickly sold out upon debut." I have tried reading on the big screen and the little screen. I hate to rain on this new-tech parade of offerings, but I don't see any need to give up the printed word. In fact, I printed out the Journal story so I didn't have to read it on the screen. |

hello!
I'm a big Paulo Coelho's fan and I don't know if you heard about his blog
http://www.paulocoelhoblog.com
I've started as a fan and now I'm collaborating with him and thought that you would like to enter his universe.
Check the blog.
if you want, or subscribe to his newsletter
http://www.warriorofthelight.com/engl/index.html
You'll see a community of warriors of light sharing ideas, dreams and most importantly following their personal legend.
QUOTE OF THE DAY:
Listen to your heart. It knows all things, because it came from the Soul of the World, and it will one day return there.
Have a nice day!

Hello,
well - what people don't know is that Harper Collins only launched this free online reading formula after the bestselling author Paulo Coelho revealed his pirate coelho blog to the world during the DLD conference in Munich last January.
I read the interveiw he gave for Newsweek and can't help to join the dots:

I doubt Harper Collins would have made such a move without this author's pressure.
Thumbs up for Pirate Coelho!
