My first interview about The Late Age of Print is now up on Scott Esposito’s wonderful blog, Conversational Reading. You can find the full text of the conversation here. Scott not only asks smart questions that cystalize key themes from Late Age, but he also presses me to elaborate on some of the more controversial arguments I advance there. He’s an amazing interviewer, and I’m fortunate to have had such a wonderful first interview experience about the book. Enjoy!

Just a quick note to say how excited I am to be heading out today to the Library 2.0 Symposium, hosted by Yale Law School. The organizers have graciously invited me to present a version of my work-in-progress on the Amazon Kindle e-reader, which is an outgrowth of The Late Age of Print. The piece is called “Kindle: The Labor of Reading in an Age of Ubiquitous Bookselling,” and the latest draft is hosted here on my wiki site: http://striphas.wikidot.com/kindle-the-labor-of-reading-worksite-v2-0. Comments are of course welcome and encouraged.
I plan on posting some sort of report about the Symposium early next week, so be sure to check back then.
