I'm back in Durham! The two days of travel were fine, the hotel in GA was not, the Greenville Whole Foods is still impressive. But first, a new product idea I had on the way home.
I really enjoyed my audio books. So much that last night, instead of watching lame TV I plugged my iPod into my computer and kept listening. Which was really cool because the iPod kept my place.
The only problem was that I couldn't exactly match travel time to audio book time. I got home with about 5 hours left in Post Captain. Unfortunately my daily life doesn't much accommodate audio books. I don't have a long commute and I don't think I could concentrate on an audio book while working.
What I'd like to see is a combination audio book/e-book. You could listen on your iPod, then plug into your computer and start reading from the last bit you heard. Then mark your place in the e-book, and go back to audio starting from where you stopped reading.
Wouldn't that be cool?

I'd sure enjoy that. By the way, have you checked out LibriVox.org? Amateur books-on-tape that you can contribute to.
