Hi everyone!
With today being Shakespeare's day as well as a symbolic day for world literature, I thought it'd be a good opportunity to learn more about your reading habits and how much your phone or technology in general is involved in these.
As I studied literature, I used to think physical books were the only legitimate way to read, and that reading on a screen could never compare. Commuting everyday with 1000+ pages novels in my handbag slowly made me reconsider my position : I now find that I read much more thanks to my kindle, and how convenient it is 
The Kindle app on my iPhone is also great for a quick read inbetween other things! That being said, the smell of a fresh new book will always be something special, and I don't plan on completely stopping to extend my library anytime soon 
So what do you guys think, how do you go about getting through your novels and other books? Are you firm traditionals, a mix of both or do you prefer your books on a screen?

Kindle these days, the 'ole peepers are not what they once were (well, one isn't, and the other may not be far behind...).
The basic one, works great in bright sunshine, such as one might encounter on the Costa Blanca in Spain

Nope I have Virgin as it was cheaper than Sky for what I needed. My son has the full Sky package so I use his login on the laptop (:happy-smiley01:) or tablet. For BT sports it's the old Mobdro innit....

I am presuming that your son landed safely then? On the helipad in your back garden?
