Right now I am reading the Grand Design by Stephen Hawkings with Leonard Msomething.
I think I will need to reread this book several times just let it sink in.

I was thrilled when I made my own website for first time. However it only said "Hello! Welcome to my website." with different fonts, size, and all. Lots of websites are made in html, so it's interesting. Interesting to see how long the code list is, especially from a cool-looking website. I need to get into it more, maybe it's for me. Maybe not! haha

Excel for Dummies? Are you keeping records, making charts for somebody or what? Studying business? Just curious. I have seen those books and it tells me I should know it by now. You know...

I don't like making a single mistake though and wonder what is wrong with my website, especially when I expect it to be awesome when finished.

Bet it takes forever to see what's wrong with the code list unless there's a software to check for errors.

Nonetheless, I hope you pull through and make great websites. Beats playing videogames all day you know...

I'm reading "The Americans: The Democratic Experience" by Daniel Boorstin, on my Nook. Very interesting book. It's the history of the U.S. from about the early 1800's through mid-1900's (more or less), from mostly the point of view of the people who made the leaps of invention that made current American life possible. What's interesting is how he ties together various inventions and developmenst, and shows how one thing leads to another.

For instance, Mr. Roebuck's mail-order catalogue and the development of Rural Free Delivery to people living on isolated farms led to the development of an entirely new sort of community - people united by what they buy, not by where they live or whether they even know each other.

And I LOVE my Nook - I can toss this 800-plus page book into my beach bag, for the weight of a paperback! How cool is THAT!! Speaking of interesting inventions that have changed our lives, eh??

Mudkipz

I want to get one, but I don't read much (yet). Considering it as a reward once I read all of these stack of new books I ordered in my room.

That is a cool example, and something to think about. Built-in dictionary too, so no carrying a dictionary should you come across a word you don't understand!

Just finished "Darkly Dreaming Dexter". (shiver) I am beginning "Water for Elephants". Something to work the shivers away.

I have the "Simple Touch Reader," the black and white print one. Doesn't have all the bells and whistles of the color version, but for my needs (reading outside in the sun quite a bit), it's perfect.

Smithtr

LOL I am pretty lots of experience adjust to trick, mistake incident screw up watch on code html I am learn it! I am very lots of improve my skills 5 yrs!

Bet you'll like "Water for Elephants," but don't be so sure it's going to work the shivers away! It has its dark side, too.

Mudkipz

That's the newest one by Barnes & Nobles! How is it comparing to Kindle eReader? Nook has bigger selection of books, so that alone might be better than Kindle, plus the touch screen, which all Kindle devices don't have.

I like it a lot better than the Kindle. There is a thread here called something like "B and N Nook vs. Kindle." I'll try to find it.

The screen of the Kindle was really annoying, I thought. It does a sort of flash, bang thing when you turn the page that I found very disruptive. The Nook has a speedy and unobtrusive page-turning ability. Just a quick flicker, and that's it.

I like the size of it very much. I bought a cover for it and with the cover, it's about the same size as the average paper-back, and very easy to hold and read. I take it with me outside quite a bit, and no problem reading in the sun.

It won't work for magazines, so if you want magazine subscriptions, you'll want the new Nook Color version.

So far I have not bought any books for it. I just check books out on-line from the library. That works very well and it serves me just fine. That said, I am on the waiting list for about a dozen books, and I can see it's going to take quite a while to get down to me, as I'm 32 out of 50 on one, 12 out of 20 on another, that sort of thing. So I might eventually break down and buy copies of the things I want to read, but so far I'm doing fine being, um, frugal. Some would say "cheap."

I am studying accounting in college. I have to take a computer class for the major but the book is just for starters.

There's waiting lists? Heh. Why doesn't the library just loan it out to everyone? How does this eBook loaning system work? It's electronic stuff you know.

What about math? Is the standards high to major in accounting and such? You know I got question. What is one important thing does the person whose profession is accounting knows that other people don't know about? (Agh might be bad phrase right there.)

And kudos, hope you pull through. Hard major and lots of numbers.

It has to do with the rights to the book. The authors and publishers and everyone still have to get paid, ya know! So if the library buys 5 "rights" to a particular title, then it can only loan out those rights to 5 people at a time.

Mudkipz

Oo I know what you're saying! Maybe can you refer me to "rights" like the keyword so I can check it out more? How does the library buys "right" and get permission from the authors and publishers? Has to do with laws and likes, just don't know the right word.
