With the advent (and growing popularity) of eBooks, I’m seeing more and more articles about how much “better” they can be, because they have the option to be interactive … videos, music, glossaries … all sorts of little extra goodies to help “enhance” your reading experience, rather like listening to the Director’s commentary on a DVD of your favorite movie.
How do you feel about that possibility? Does it excite you in a cutting-edge kind of way? Or does it chill you to the bone because that’s not what reading is ABOUT?
Don’t forget to leave a link to your actual response (so people don’t have to go searching for it) in the comments—or if you prefer, leave your answers in the comments themselves!

Oh, hot topic…check out the “short version” of my thoughts HERE
A nice controversial topic. I’m just a teensy bit opinionated on this one: http://myreadersblock.blogspot.com/2011/06/booking-through-thursday-book.html

Oh does it ever chill me to the bone. Great topic!
Great question!

Interesting. I really didn’t know how I felt about this until I started writing. Here’s what I said:

My answer (in Portuguese): http://florestadelivros.blogspot.com/2011/06/booking-through-thursday.html
Suck it up, people. It’s the wave of the future. It’s inevitable. It’s the music revolution all over again. It’s the paradigm shift that so many are refusing to accept. I guess it’s because the essence of the book has been around for centuries. I like carrying 100 books in my eReader instead of in my suitcase. I know it’s comfy and cozy and we like how it feels to curl up in bed with a book, or lie in the bath with one. We also loved vinyl as well, once. Remember?

I guess interactive “reading” is real today, and it will not go away, but I love reading. You can find my thoughts here: http://sigridfraenget.blogg.no/1308256566_booking_through_thurs.html

Those media features are more interruptive than interactive.
