In Our Feeds: Watson, Longreads, Kindle page numbers

By Tyler on February 18th, 2011

Every Friday, we share a handful of links we found interesting, provocative, funny — or just plain cool. We call it In Our Feeds. Enjoy!

Georgia school consider a shift to digital. Forward-thinking or jumping the gun? (School Library Journal)

Will Richardson tells us what he thinks is the real value of “online learning” and “learning online.” (Weblogg-ed.com)

We’ve all read about Watson this week. The LA Times “Jacket Copy” blog delves into the book vs. e-book story linked to it. (LATimes.com)

We discovered Longreads on Twitter, which highlights examples of long-form journalism as way to dispel the myth that social media sites (like Twitter) have killed writing that requires long reads.

New Kindle software will include “real page numbers” on the screen. (Washington Post “Faster Forward” blog)
