Task #4 E-Readers

 I would choose the Nook Wi-fi. Simply put, that allows a person the freedom they need to browse and buy titles on the go. It isn't that much more cost-wise, $150, and it got all good or very good ratings. It's overall score was 53, according to the Consumer Reports article in Volume 75, issue 12, pg. 40-41, December 1, 2010, titled; "E Book Readers: They've Never Been Better or Cheaper". That is an average number, right? Also, it is a Consumer Reports best buy!

For the most part the e readers have a lot of the same features. I would buy the nook almost solely because it  would allow me to read library material--free.

How to use:
Turn on the nook or wake it up, choose and check out a title, then last, transfer title over from adobe digital additions to the nook.

Task #3

CR article "Electronics: A World of choices" dated 1/2011 was the most recent best... article I found on smart phones.

"Izzy Quits Guns N Roses" was the article that grabbed my attention in the 1/9/92 issue of Rolling Stone magazine.

Enter me in the drawing for the Sony reader if I'm right please. I already entered for the $100 once, why be redundant?

Task #2

I learned in this task that library basics will start being an offered class here at our library. I also learned one of our newest board members is Joe Taylor. My score after much hunting and clicking was 9/10...I know, not perfect. Better luck next time I guess.
