NPR updated my answer to the question I asked last year: Do I love reading or do I love books? Here’s the Chronicle of Higher Education original article, and the one I just published on the iPad: Reading Dickens Four Ways (2009) My iPad Day (2010) Check out this Judy Jetson illustration that accompanied the […]

Earth to Earthlink: goodbye from your last customer
June 26, 2010 by
I registered my domain in 1998 and soon thereafter set up web hosting with Earthlink. Hey, it was 1998! My first website was created to keep friends and family informed about my son’s hospitalization; we didn’t call it a blog, but that’s actually what it was, complete with a guest book that I would read […]
Must you deconstruct everything?
May 16, 2010 by
I found this picture on the Guardian website and found it rather depressing. Yeah, I know, it’s just a machine. Am writing on an article on creativity and the iPad — please send me any great examples or apps you’ve discovered!
It’s the case, stupid
April 7, 2010 by
Now I am actually over the novelty factor, I promise. No handwriting recognition continues to nag at me, since I really want to hand write notes. The weight is more troublesome than I imagined. HOWEVER, I’M STILL IN LOVE. Reading books is far better than I imagined. iBooks is far better than Kindle, but the […]

ok, iTunes 9.1 is downloaded, and i’ve entered the hilariously long security code for my home wifi network…and now we’re in synch mode. almost artsy, there I am reflected in the iPad screen. Funny coincidence that I also bought my mother-of-the-bride dress today. There’s something about having spent the morning falling in love with the […]
the iPad has NOT arrived
April 3, 2010 by
But UPS website says the package has arrived in NY! Only a few hours of normal productivity left before the UPS delivery person shows up at my doorstop. This is so beyond tweeting: how could 140 characters suffice to convey the genuine excitement??? Now, isn’t that pathetic? I’m like the monkey in 2001 waiting for […]

Seeking a co-pilot
December 4, 2009 by
Isn’t it pathetic?? Because I let too much time go by between postings, I never get fully comfortable with Word Press.? And then I let even more time go by.? Nothing worse than stale blog.? Worse than leftover salad. For instance,? one friend complained that I spent a lot of time writing about my son’s […]
Forget Bookmark
October 12, 2009 by
I should have known better than to get too excited too fast.? Bookmark takes all the fun out of the iPhone audiobook experience….well, not all of it, but a lot.? No longer can you be listening happily and also take a quick peek at email, or answer a phone call, or do anything at all.? […]
