Thing 20: Books 2.0

After looking at all the resources, which is a little overwhelming. I don't think we will have to worry about books becoming obsolete or the library for that matter. People are still going to want to pick up a book and read it. I know I do, I for one would hate to have to read a book on a computer or some sort of electronic device...it gives me a headache after a while. I feel all the tools out help some what but for the most part they are just a way to waste time. After checking out the online tools for books I liked Bookswim the one for college textbooks. This will help greatly because with the cost of textbooks and for the time you use it (usually 3-4 months) its cheaper to rent then to purchase them. I'm going to try them out just to see how it works. I also liked the Tonight's Bedtime Story, that was neat it had all the old fairytale stories that we all grew up with and it had pictures too, which is pretty neat unlike some sites where its just text.
