Reading today is a lot different then it was in the year 868 AD; when the first book was published in China. You know a written or printed work consisting of pages glued or sewn together along one side and bound in covers. Society today is so advanced that everything we do is constantly changing whether we realize it or not. For example, the book, before people would go to a bookstore or library to get the books they were interested in. Today society is making fewer trips to the bookstore and library, and making purchases of novels on their e-readers in the comfort of their own home. With these e-readers you can simply purchase any book you would like, some books being under a buck or even free, saving you a trip to the bookstore. E-readers

“The Future of Libraries in The E-Book Age.” NPR, NPR, 4 Apr. 2011, www.npr.org/2011/04/04/135117829/the-future-of-libraries-in-the-e-book-age. Accessed 1 Mar. 2017. In this article, Lynn Neary writes of the struggle libraries are havinh in battling technology as it progresses. The uprising of e-books, has left libraries somewhat ignored; until places such as Harper Collins publishing co. put a limit on how many times an e-book can be rented. Several pros of e-books are: when it is overdue it disappears from the device without any extra charge; and if it is loaned to someone, the copy is still on your device. One fear is that libraries are becoming obsolete and eventually, publishers will no longer be making money – thus authors will make even less from their works. Eli Neiburger thinks libraries could deal straight from the source: content providers. People would be forced to go through the library and the author/artist would get more money out of that. Libraries have always been the quiet thinking place, but if they are to survive, they must make changes to accommodate the uprising of digital novels and

The seller of digital textbooks will also be saving money over producing hard copies. 32% of the cost allocated to paper, printing and editorial can be completely eliminated along with 22.4% of costs related to bookstore operations and personnel. Bookstores as we know them could become obsolete or transformed into stores that sell tablets, e-readers and software packages on campus. Publishers or sellers will now be able to tap into a more global market with electronic textbooks as the information can be translated into many languages quickly.

The world is so focused on social media including; facebook, twitter, and instagram that they don’t use their free time to read, but to tweet or update their status. Technology has gotten more interesting, and even when some people to read, they can find the book online.

Whether the New York Times was correct that ebook sales are falling, or Fortune Magazine was right to insist the opposite, there is only a small total readership for this format of books. Self-publishing may not be the wisest course of action for a beginning writer seeking wide readerships and high profits. However, it still might be a worthwhile path for a beginning writer who wishes to share their work without the hassle of traditional publishing. Writers must carefully evaluate their writing goals before making their decision. Because of what I learned about ebooks’ audience size, I will now be more open to the idea of choosing traditional publishing over self-publishing for my own

In this day and age, the vast majority of young Americans are conflicted on whether attending college is the right choice for them.

You brought up a very good point. Cellphones, as you mentioned, and especially smartphones, have more uses than most people actually know about. Many criminals utilize these devices to trigger bombs to perform terrorist attacks. I have seen cases where cell phone devices have contained hacking tools used by criminals to decrypt passwords and take over target systems also. The usage of cell phone devices by means of criminal activity has been increasing drastically over the years and part of the reasons why is the fact that they pass private devices that can be used to store all sorts of confidential information in an encrypted format. Riley v California is a live example of the protection that criminals receive under the Fourth Amendment.
