Perhaps rather than contrasting the book with the ebook, we should identify differences along other dimensions. For example, I am not certain I want to integrate a series of demonstration videos within an ebook. I might also not want to attempt to rewrite core sections of text to address newer data, legal decisions, or software each time something new is available. Perhaps it makes more sense to differentiate core ideas that remain static for some period of time and then to offer links to new examples, new software allowing similar strategies to be implemented, etc.

Hi – I have a blog on using Interactive Fiction for language learning – http://www.theswanstation.com/wordpress (but I haven’t got around to juicy stuff yet). While doing some research for some book chapters I’m writing, I came across references for your 1988 article, As you’ve mentioned, it isn’t available anymore, however, I’d love to see it if you still have a copy. Thanks!
