On the Kindle every book is Twilight.
What does this even mean?
Text is already digital (made solely from a discrete alphabet), all about setting up a completely artificial virtual reality of sorts, and not fundamentally tied to any specific physical medium. Strangely, I nevertheless don't see many of these types of essays condemning novels on the same breath as social networking and video games.
