andrilena I've been using Firefox for quite some time now, but recently it started crashing and freezing on me a lot. I downloaded 3.6 but I still had the same issues so I ended up switching to Chrome (which I'd used a little before). I actually think Chrome is a bit...

Audio books or traditional books?

taraelocin @taraelocin (1138) 13 Jan 10

I love reading. I love the feeling of a book in my hand. I love the sound of turning the page. I love hearing the voices and sounds in my own head. But audio books are increasingly popular. Can they replace traditional books?...

andrilena I prefer traditional books, as well. It's a bit harder for me to pay attention to an audio book, and at least when I'm reading I can go back and reread something I may have overlooked or missed if I zoned out. I have started listening to audio books some,...

Do you try to read the book before seeing the movie?

cmauthe1 @cmauthe1 (267) • Canada 14 Jan 10

I recently finished reading The Road, by Cormac McCarthy. I saw the movie advertised a while back and thought I would check to see if the library had it. I had expected the book to be written some years ago, but it was actually...

andrilena I've recently discovered that if I watch the movie adaption first and then read the book, I enjoy the film version a lot more but still like the book, as well. In the past, especially with the Harry Potter films, I would read the books first and then see the...

Do you prefer to bake bread yourself or buy bread from the store?

Sheri @tuckersheri (1327) • United States 4 Oct 09

I prefer to bake bread because it is so much better when it is home cooked. Store boughten bread is just plain. Home cooked bread you can make it just right and home cooked stuff always taste better in my book. Home cooked bread...

andrilena I buy bread from the store, for one because I don't know exactly how to bake it myself. Though even if I did, I probably wouldn't do it often because I'm lazy, haha. It's probably fairly easy with a breadmaker, I'm sure, but I certainly can't afford one of...

andrilena I didn't experience my first kiss until I was 20 (so it happened a mere three and a half years ago, lol). I was in Hawaii as a sort of babysitter/helper for a woman from my church who was moving there with her baby to be with the husband/father. Anyway, while...

andrilena I cried in public recently, sort of. I work at a Ross clothing store as a cashier and got conned out of some money. After realizing it and trying to explain to the MOD what happened, I started crying because I felt so stupid and, of course, upset. The store...

What do you do with your books after you've read them?

vicki2876 @vicki2876 (5636) • Canada 19 Jan 09

Do you have a library like my father. Or are you like me and donate them? Somewhere in between where you give away some and keep the real special ones? Which do you keep and which go? I like to donate mine because I like to...

andrilena I pretty much have my own library, or perhaps collection since many of the books I own I haven't gotten around to reading yet. If I really like a book, I'll want to read it more than once, so I couldn't bear to part with it. If I come across any books that I'm...
