Long time ago I asked a friend, what is missing living in a
country without four seasons. She said that the sense of
progress is what's missing. I guess the same feeling is missing
when I am reading an e-book.  Reading an e-book I don't have a
sense of how many pages left to read. I know that there is an
indicator of the number pages in most e-books reader. There's
even a percentage indicator. But, I don't get the sensation.
When reading a conventional, physical book, I put a bookmark.
Looking at the bookmark I get the sense of how much more I have
to read. Sometimes I flip the pages just to get the sense. I
know I can calculate based on current page and the number of
pages in the book, but it just don't work.  Maybe this is
because I came from an analog world?  Anyway, it would be
interesting if somebody can create that kind of progress
sensation when reading e-books. That would be neat.   Maximum
