19:16:56 PeggyG -> how fun!! Oscar and Dave!

19:18:18 John G -> Because library patrons NEVER actually buy their own books. Very short sighted.

19:18:43 PeggyG -> they have similar limitations on sharing Kindle books

19:20:30 PeggyG -> http://www.amazon.com/gp/help/customer/display.html/ref=hp_200127470_ksu...

19:21:00 PeggyG -> can lend Kindle books once for a period of 14 days and the lender can't read the book during the load period...

19:21:47 JohnS -> lois!

19:21:53 mcgillhorn -> Hi

19:22:02 JohnS -> talking about libraries and e-books.

19:22:29 mcgillhorn -> excellent...looking for all I can on ebooks

19:24:05 PeggyG -> they would make money on me because I would subscribe and then not take advantage of it due to lack of time to read

19:24:55 John G -> Netflix. A set monthly price and I can watch anything they have.

19:25:11 PeggyG -> yes John G--same model :-)

19:25:49 John G -> Ed books will always exist because they will be assigned reading :-)

19:26:12 PeggyG -> for sure!

19:26:32 PeggyG -> hahahaha

19:30:14 JenM -> PLA: http://www.irrodl.org/index.php/irrodl/article/view/973/1688

19:30:48 John G -> Schools should do this so they can block everything.

19:31:11 JohnS -> yeah, except they'd have to change out the sim cards on all the kids' phones.

19:32:53 JenM -> http://davecormier.com/edblog/2011/03/15/an-open-university-prep-course-...

19:37:17 PeggyG -> 3 paid people to facilitate a single course?

19:39:15 John G -> Good point Peggy.

19:41:59 John G -> Good point, Jen. How many of these third party/cloud apps will still be there in 6 mo, a year, etc.

19:43:26 John G -> Facebook is perfect example.  Poor interface but continues to grow.
