Well, I'm going to try a third blog. This one is for my reading, mostly just short comments and not full reviews, but who knows how it will turn out...
I have two ebook readers, the Sony Reader (PRS-505) and the Barnes and Noble Nook. I also have a Motorola Droid with the Nook, Kindle, Kobo, Borders, Aldiko, and Wattpad applications on it. I bought the Sony Reader in October 2007 and the Barnes & Noble Nook in April 2010 so about 2.5 years apart. Most of the books on the Sony are either free ebooks or from Baen books (purchased and free), I have purchased a few via the Borders/Sony online store. I have copied all of the free ebooks to the memory card in my Nook, but I am mostly using it to read new books I’ve purchased from B&N. I also still have a number of real books in my library that I haven't gotten around to reading yet. Most of the time I am in the process of reading three or four books.

Just a Word for July
Don't really have time for much, but I noticed I hadn't posted anything yet during July so....
Yard work going slowly, but getting done. I have been working in the garage and I'll add some of those pictures to the slide show to the right. Been shopping for a new 'fridge, looking mostly at ones with the freezer on the bottom.
Rosie's been her normal abnormal self this month. Soft and friendly most of the time, but every once in a while all fangs and laid back ears.
Last night I finished reading The Lost City of Z: A Tale of Deadly Obsession in the Amazon. It was a very enjoyable read. I have to admit that I'd never heard of Percy Fawcett before starting this book. In reading this book I learned that he was the basis for several characters in books and movies that I am familiar with. I won't spoil the book by going into detail I will strongly recommend it if you like adventure stories like Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's The Lost World. The Indiana Jones movie series, et cetera

eBook Readers on the Droid
Well, the Nook App. for the Droid is out today! I now have Adobe Reader, Aldiko (premium version), Borders, Kindle, Kobo, Nook and Wattpad on my Droid. I've been using Aldiko the most but, since I have a Nook I'll probably be switching to it as the most used eReader app.
