My Situation as a Reader

I'm a 21 year old male, majoring in Game Art and Design at the Ringling College of Art and Design.

What this means for my situation as a reader is that I have very little time in which to read, be it books, newspapers, magazines, etc. In order to streamline reading into my daily life, I minimize what I read to information relevant to my career which can be found on the Internet. This generally means the information I receive is condensed to the bare necessities, and this suits me just fine. I have a set list of websites I check on a bi-daily basis from which to derive my information, and will occasionally venture out from that set if I hear about something particularly interesting.

Most of my reading takes place in front of a backlit LCD screen. Looking toward the future, I'm considering investing in some form of tablet computer so I can read in a fashion similar to the Nook or Kindle, and do so more readily than a stationary computer.

I grew up reading codecs, usually science fiction or fantasy novels, which set me on the path that lead me to where I am. I bring a scientific and analytical mind to what I read.
