David Weinberger, co-author of the Cluetrain Manifesto, blogs a couple of notes-to-self about e-books and the digital library:
I can’t wait until we’re all reading on e-books. Because they’ll be networked, reading will become social. Book clubs will be continuous, global, ubiquitous, and as diverse as the Web.
And just think of being an author who gets to see which sections readers are underlining and scribbling next to.
and
Right now, we have a single knowledge–the world is either one way or another–and multiple libraries.
As we put our works on line, we’ll only need one library and will have multiple knowledges.
