I think there are going to be a bunch of tablet-like devices. It's really a different product category.
Jeff BezosI'm skeptical that the novel will be "reยญinvented." If you start thinking about a medical textbook or something, then, yes, I think that's ripe for reinvention. You can imagine animations of a beating heart. But I think the novel will thrive in its current form. That doesn't mean that there won't be new narrative inventions as well. But I don't think they'll displace the novel.
Jeff BezosWhen you receive criticism from well-meaning people, it pays to ask, โAre they right?โ And if they are, you need to adapt what theyโre doing. If theyโre not right, if you really have conviction that theyโre not right, you need to have that long-term willingness to be misunderstood. Itโs a key part of invention.
