Kobo, Tumblr, and Readmill Discuss Social Reading at BEA. ⇒

   6 June 2012, late morning

Both Fershleisher and O’Donoghue also noted that their youngest members tend to be the most active social readers, which means we may still see behaviors or even genres emerge around social reading. In one example, O’Donoghue said that one young Kobo reader is using Kobo Pulse to rewrite parts of a Hunger Games book, and other readers are then rating the fanfic version — and this is happening alongside the original text.

The future is now?

Don't be shy, you can comment too!

 
Some things to keep in mind: You can style comments using Textile. In particular, *text* will get turned into text and _text_ will get turned into text. You can post a link using the command "linktext":link, so something like "google":http://www.google.com will get turned in to google. I may erase off-topic comments, or edit poorly formatted comments; I do this very rarely.
