In these days, young generation finds ebook is much easier than reading through the printed books. In addition, there are many options to read ebook through Iphones, ipads, kindles, nooks etc. It is easier to read because people are watching text in the same manner as watching an onscreen video, it is refreshed and faster than people’s eyes can detect. The brain may catch the missing letter easier. On the other hand, I can’t read it ebook and something else because I need to feel it physically but I can read only news online.
