With the evolution of tecnology, so many things change fast and this affect the way of life of people around the globe. And so on the trend is substitute old things for new and modern ones. What will happen with books? The term e-books (eletronic) refer to the new compact devices that just started to appear in the market. With them you can storage hundreds of books in a simply card and search for a title easily! That device hav screen ilumination and is easy to read in dark. E-books can be considered too, all "book" that you read on pc screen. Considering the advantages of the devices, eletronical books will take the market soon? What will happen with paper? People will prefer to read big texts on the new way or will still prefer to turn each page of a paper book to get into your favorite chapter?

Oh I would hate to see books become obsolete! there is nothing like turning the pages of a gripping storyline! I love to read and I love the computer but each has its place!

I don't think books will disappear just because of the evolution of technology such as the internet. Books are more convenient to read than in a computer. I read the Holy Bible - the all-time best seller. I am a Christian, a child of God, baptized into Christ on October 1, 1989 and I belong to the Church of Christ founded and headed by Christ as shown in Acts Chapter 2. I am given the gift of knowledge and understanding Bible Greek and I translate the Word of God from Greek to English PLAINLY - Greek word into its English equivalent with additional words for grammar purposes written in italics so that readers may delete them when they so desire. I have already published GENESIS, EXODUS, LEVITICUS (Greek-English), THE WILL New Testament (Greek to English), ELEMENTS of SALVATION, The Right Way, GOD, ORIGIN, TRANSFER into PERFECTION, GREEK-ENGLISH (Grammar & Vocabulary), WORDS in THE WILL New Testament, and others shown at http://www.lulu.com/arseniajoaquin I have seen the versions being circulated worldwide and they are generally admitted to be 80% NOT translations. My translations are 99.99% translations and I see the truth, beauty, and sweetness of the Word of God. I hope these books could also help people understand the Word of God and be saved. I hope that you include some of these in your reading.

I don't think books will totally go away. Look there are books that are thousands of years ago. We tried to go paperless at one of my jobs and I myself had my customers almost there before I moved. But there were other buyers that loved the good ole paper trail. I don't think paper will totally go away either.
