Simon and Schuster's new Pulse It site debuted at the beginning of last month. It includes Facebook-like qualities like friending other members, plus places to review their books. Instead of the pool of teens getting tangible copies of books, they're now releasing digital copies of two books a month to all members, giving them a set number of days to read. Sounds pretty extensive.I was too old for Pulse It when I first found out about it and I'm not any younger now. For those of you that do use it, how do you like it? Is it a kind of smaller version of the book blogging community? Is it a good place to meet other book lovers and talk about books? Did you prefer the older Pulse It and would rather get the tangible books?
I'm genuinely interested because this whole movement of digitized reading is supposed to be really central around teens but I'm wondering if they're really just as attached to physical books as the rest of us. Speak up!
