    This little article shows how to limit what kids can use on an iPad for any given lesson. It can stop them from even seeing their home page so they cannot launch anything but the app(s) you have planned for them. Cool and helpful.

  • A fifth of American adults have read an e-book in the past year and the number of e-book readers grew after a major increase in ownership of e-book reading devices and tablet computers during the holiday gift-giving season
  • The average reader of e-books says she has read 24 books (the mean number) in the past 12 months, compared with an average of 15 books by a non-e-book consumer.
  • Some 41% of tablet owners and 35% of e-reading device owners said they are reading more since the advent of e-content.
  • ...3 more annotations...
  • There are four times more people reading e-books on a typical day now than was the case less than two years ago
  • E-book reading happens across an array of devices, including smartphones.
  • In a head-to-head competition, people prefer e-books to printed books when they want speedy access and portability, but print wins out when people are reading to children and sharing books with others
