An interesting read.  Yahoo has come out with the 10 reasons not to buy an iPad for students.

While some thought went into the list, i find my iPad a necessary accessory just about everywhere I go.  It really is a lifesaver on planes.

See what you think of the list.

Kindle Free Pick of the Week: Ex-Boyfriend's Handbook

Funny as can be.  Great summer reading.

When Edward Middleton hears those words from Jane, his girlfriend of ten years, he knows he’s in serious trouble. Determined to get her back, Edward realizes he must learn how to make women want him again. But one thing is certain: if he’s to be Jane’s Mr. Right, he needs to turn himself around. From Atkins to waxing, Edward works his way through the makeover alphabet. But can he rise from the ranks of discarded exes, or will his journey take him in another direction entirely? With over 100,000 copies sold in the UK, this is a hilarious look at relationships from a man’s point of view.

Made in Atlanta: Protect Your Gadgets with a Rookcase

I want one badly, a Rookcase that is.  If you're an avid Kindle, iPad or Nook user but miss the feel of a real book, an Atlanta entreprenuer may be able to solve your problem. She makes the Rookcase, a protective case for those high-tech e-reader gadgets that is actually handcrafted from recycled books.

It's made by Atlanta-based Etsy artisan Heather Schnelle, and it serves two purposes. The Rookcase protects your e-reader and lets it go incognito with a "book style" case. There's a variety of cases offered: some are from actual old books, while others are new and modern. For these sleeker contemporary models, there's the possibility of selecting one of four outer cover colors and one of 14 interior cover colors available.

Each case is unique, depending on which recycled book you prefer. Some are classic covers like an older edition of The Hobbit, while others can be a little more modern looking.

It also helps the environment by recycling all those unused books we have taking up space.

The cases come with a cushioned, custom one piece birch tray, and there's an elastic book strap for added protection.

Get one or two of these now. Here's Heather's place on Etsy: http://www.etsy.com/shop/Rookcase?ref=top_trail .  Get one for your Mom, too.
