Tim O'Reilly, in case you don't know, is the president of O'Reilly Media, a leading publisher of technical computer books. He is also a visionary within the publishing industry.

I'm still not convinced about the place of e-books in the world, this video makes some compelling arguments in favor of them. I like the phrase that "the bookstore follows readers" referring to Amazon's Kindle product.
