When I vacation at my grandmother's cottage in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, I read the Mining Gazette most days. It's nowhere near the quality of the NYT, but it is enjoyable to hold a paper and drink coffee.

On a related note, I have a Kindle, but I am finding myself losing the motivation to read on it. I like the physical experience, and I want the book when I am done. I don't feel like having it in my Kindle account means that I have it. I can't loan it to a friend.

But newspapers are going to change. Hopefully we can end up with something similarly satisfying.
