Though rarely considered an art, steamy romance novels seem to be driving sales in the ebook territory. What's next, soap operas? If only the arts could find a way to sell as successfully as these trashy novels, we would be onto something big.
In an earlier post I mentioned how it would be interesting to have people on sets using ebooks and ereaders for updated script changes etc. I maintain that this is still a plausible utility for these items and that it would probably be smarter for more arts orgs. to invest in ereaders.
It would even make more sense to start using them in the visual arts world where you could have a carry along guide that you could utilize while viewing exhibits.
