		<description><![CDATA[Read an interview with Paul Saffo this morning (in Bill Moggridge&#8217;s Designing Media). He offers three ways that our media experiences are transitioning from &#8220;mass&#8221; to &#8220;personal.&#8221; And I wanted to take a second to think through these aspects of media experience specifically in terms of how readers experiences of books might be changing.

		<description><![CDATA[We are suffering under an avalanche of books. And I don&#8217;t choose the word &#8220;avalanche&#8221; capriciously. I mean it. I think for all of us, there&#8217;s at least some anxiety to the book buying experience. That is, the wanting-then-searching-then-finding-then-choosing-then-buying-then-reading experience. The book business is complicated industry, and its marketing aspects might be the most difficult [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&#8220;The Book&#8221; has been dying for a long time. Although I don&#8217;t have any actual data to back this up, I sense that the cultural propensity to predict the the book&#8217;s demise is directly proportional to the amount of attention we pay to the adoption of digital technologies.
