New Website
Uncategorized / October 9, 2010

I’m taking that big leap into bloggerdom, I decided to change from Blogger to my own domain using WordPress. I have enjoyed writing this blog, conversing with people and the whole blogosphere immensely and I thank you all for it. Unfortunately I lost some of the comments and for that I apologize, they were insightful and interesting. I’ll see what I can do to bring them back. I hope you like the new format, I have some more work to do (basically tagging & formatting posts) – please let me know if I am missing something, if something is not working or if you’d like to see something new. Thanks, Zohar – man of la book

With the prices of eBooks inching up every week, I think this un-scientific and small poll just might reflects a much wider audience of readers. I have no idea if a book sells more when it’s $3-$4 to be worth it to the publisher to drop the price, but it sure is an interesting question. By the way, my impulse purchase price is around $4 (and I have…
