Mith Digital Dialoges – Peter Kay on the book

Today’s Digital Dialog featured Peter Kay who talked about the current state of the book/e-book and how discovery, social media and new forms of reading are changing how we read.

A few interesting moments – SmallDemons as an alternative discovery layer to traditional online booksellers, “we need to understand the bookiness of books, the music industry failed to see the musicness of music”, the emergence of the book app, and “Its important for authors to encouter that digital dark night of the soul” and get off twitter.

The session was tweeted by some folks in the session and Peter has a personal site.
