What Do You Read?
Earlier today, I posted a video (and blog post) filled with tips on how to maximize your comprehension when it comes to whatever you are reading. That video made me reflect on the types of things I tend to read. I don’t often sit down with a book. When I do, though, my concentration is so absolute that I tend to tune out everything else. I let myself become absorbed by the text. This allows me to truly comprehend and digest whatever it is I’m reading.
I also spend a great deal of time reading things online. I’m constantly perusing blogs, forums, website postings, news sites – you name it, and I likely read it if it’s online. Even though it’s something I’m reading on a computer screen, that doesn’t mean it doesn’t deserve my full attention. It doesn’t mean that it isn’t just as important as a book I can hold in my hands.
What do you read the most? Do you spend time curled up with a book, or are you like me… preferring to read what people in the world are up to, thinking, feeling and writing about? If you haven’t been keeping up with what people are doing on Lockergnome and Geeks, now is as good a time as any.

When it comes to reading my current habits include switching between criminal justice textbooks (juvenile delinquency, law & legal process — thanks AASU!), various comic books (currently digging on The Stand, Buffy season 8, and The Unwritten), and switching back and forth between books on my Kindle (including A Thousand Splendid Suns, The Consequences of Ideas, The Manual of Detection, and The Raw Shark Texts).
When I’m online I usually just read various news articles and the occasional tech blog.
