I’m finding that I’m spending a lot of time reading in front of a computer. I’ve only just really noticed. It means that  my note taking is becoming a lot more organised; for a long time it’s been through the use of pieces of paper, scattered notebooks and some organised notebooks (for reading particular books). But partly I read in front of the computer so I can check certain stuff (or look at website or blog references) while I’m reading.

There’s been a couple of discussions I’ve been half following recently about e-books.  Maybe existing books could become e-books but with the addition of hypertext within the book itself; so for example, The Origin of Species could be created as an e-book with links within the text to relevant resources. Maybe this is already happening, or has happened.
