The pace at TeleRead tends to be fast—sometimes  close to15 posts on busy days. One way to keep up with all the news is to use the Previous Entries link at the bottom of our pages to the left. Here are a few goodies you might not have seen:

–Our review of Stanza 2.0 (screen shot), along with info on recovering Stanza e-books “lost” during OS upgrades on your iPhone.

–A write-up on a free time travel book called The British Barbarians, which Grant Allen (photo) published in 1895, the same year as H.G. Wells’ The Time Machine.

–A global TeleRead scoop—apparently—where we broke the news that the first Nook upgrade was already out. Plus, separately: Barnes & Noble to give $100 to users who missed promised Christmas delivery.

–TeleRead’s successful move to a faster hosting service. Didn’t you hate those outages and slowdowns? We sure did!

–Tips on downloading fan fiction and, in another post, a link to a Calibre guide for new Kindle owners.

–My Sony Reader one year later, by Ficbot.

About “bits and bobs”: That’s Brit for “oods and ends.”
