“Readers once relied on Stephen King, Dean Koontz, Clive Barker and other masters of horror and thrills to obtain a frisson of dread. But now Adobe is considering introducing a radical new ebook reader that has a special proprietary built-in system called ‘Flash.’” – Garson Poole, in a funny satire–with some possible roots in reality. Let’s hope that Adobe heeds Garson’s well-intended warning. Photo is of King. Update, 8:16 a.m.: Fixed link to Garson’s essay.
