"The new electronic interdependence recreates the world in the image of a global village."
- Marshall McLuhan, "Gutenberg Galaxy", 1962

"Books were only one type of receptacle where we started a lot of things we were afraid we might forget. There is nothing magical about them at all. The magic is only with what books say, how they stiched the patches of the universe together into one garment."
- Ray Bradbury, "Fahrenheit 451", 1951

I just love how much Amazon is getting crap from all ends right now. Love it. Where were you guys about a year ago when I was standing on my soapbox screaming about ‘em because they were the only e-format that didn’t support EPUBs? The library ebook format of choice?

Now, that’s not an issue anymore - but still. I love that they are taking some heat. MUHAHAHAHAHA! How’s that quote go? If you can’t take the heat, get out of the kitchen?
