Jennifer Byrne Presents...

Hi there,

I received a link last night from one of my writing lecturers at TAFE who suggested to watch a certain program on the ABC last night. It was called "Jennifer Byrne Presents" and on last night's episode Jennifer talked about "The future of Books."

There were 3 guests on the show and Jennifer interviewed each person on their opinions about whether less paper books are being read due to e-books, Kindles and iPads being used more often lately. They were also asked whether they thought e-books were a good way to get people reading or not.

Here is a link to some of the notes of the show, many other interesting topics were brought up.



If you would like to watch last night's episode (Tues 17th May 2011) for yourself, here is the link to watch it on Iview: http://www.abc.net.au/iview/#/recent

The show is usually broadcast on ABC1 on the first Tuesday of the month at 10pm.

P.S. Sorry that I haven't posted anything for so long. I didn't even have time to post the rest of my assignments up here from last year (Write Articles for Publication 2)! Although it did get very tiresome as I had to type everything out because I am unable to copy and paste text onto Blogger for some reason! I have now moved from Waikerie to Adelaide so that is one of my reasons for being busy but not the only one.
