My favorite media.

I think that I may have a tie for my favorite type of media. I would really really miss my phone if I didn't have it. I date someone who is not close to me and I have lots of friends who have moved far far away and so to keep in touch with them I use my phone. I take for granted at times that I am able to call and have conversations with people who do not live near me frequently because of my cell phone plan. For a brief several weeks last year I was switching phone plans and I was without it. I felt stranded to be totally honest and I remember telling my mom I was deserted on an island. Did I have a land line? Yes. Did I have the internet and email? Yes. Do I have a phone card to use in case of emergencies? Yes. I still felt very disconnected from the rest of the world.

I do have to also mention that without books I would be lost. I don't get as edgy without them, but they are my main source of entertainment. I do long for a good read when I have been too busy reading required texts to do reading on my own. So, I think they are two different kinds of needs. However, those two top my list.

Finding someone to identify books as a favorite medium is rare. I'm curious what you're thoughts might be on online books/electronic books?
