An Additional Blog?

So, as most of my readers know, I work for a newspaper.  I constantly hear people (usually people ten+ years older than me, but not always) making comments about how they like physical newspapers - they like holding a newspaper, etc.

Additionally, I spoke (well, wrote) in a previous post about how I am just not sure about the Amazon Kindle (and various identical products, etc.).  I like the physical book. I am not sure, exactly, why, but I do.  Maybe it's simply for the sake of being set in my ways, but I do know that, for sure, I am not alone in feeling this way.

So, I like the physical printed word.  I know I am not alone.  Maybe I am clinging to something that some say will eventually be gone, but I don't want to think this way.  I don't want the actual book or paper to ever fully leave us.

In honor of  my love and respect, I created an additional blog.  I am not sure what to put in it, but I did snatch up the domain - www.friendsoftheprintedword.blogspot.com.    I am open to suggestions/thoughts.

Let me save you some time - yes, I do realize the extreme irony of me staring a BLOG on this subject.
