Why is audio a convenient way to “read” a book?
1) You save time, because you can listen to an audio book anywhere and everywhere, and you can even do other things at the same time. You can listen when driving to and from work, when walking the dog, cycling, working around the house or at the computer, exercising, and so on. The possibilities are endless.
According to a recent survey, in the USA a person is driving an average of 1 hour and 13 minutes daily, which means over 440 hours a year for each driver, or 11 full-time work weeks. This is huge! Imagine how many things you could learn during this time by simply having your MP3 player with audio books at hand.
2) If you love reading but don’t have a enough time, audio books can give you the opportunity to read many more books that you would otherwise have time for. Audio books are a great way to fill the “dead” moments we all have in our lives.
3) Audio books are good for older, ill or recovering people and can be a wonderful gift for someone in a nursing institution. This is a gift they can remember and enjoy time after time.
4) Audio books can be a blessing for blind people, disabled people or people with impaired vision. Everyone should have the chance to experience and enjoy a book and in many cases, this is the only way for such persons to do it.
Audio books can help these people improving their education, help them developing new hobbies and habits and greatly enriching their life, both personally and professionally.
5) The most important skill a child can ever acquire is probably the ability to read, and audio books can be easily used to stimulate literacy in children. Books can be listened to by children while following the story in the paper book. Or they could listen just to gain and improve vocabulary and communication skills. If you want to instill in your child the love of reading, audio books can be a excellent start.
Did you know that audio books are becoming more and more popular by each day? For example, in 2004, over $124 million worth of audio books were sold in the UK and $120 million in Germany during 2005. Experts say that this year the market is expected to rise by 20% in Europe, and audio books seem to be even more popular in the USA .
There are many more benefits of using audio books, but even these few reasons should be enough to convince you to enter the exciting world of the audio books from AudioBookPal.

Are Portable Water Filters better? Shouldn’t every person carry a Water Filter Bottle?
One of the most-cited reasons for drinking bottled water is “convenience.†Actually, “availability†might be a better word. Bottled water is available virtually everywhere you turn in your daily activities. Not only can you buy it in most service stations and convenience stores, you can get it in most office buildings, from either vending machines or a sandwich or snack shop. For this ready availability, you will pay at least twice as much as the same brand costs in volume at a discount store.
Consequently, if you refuse to pay double for bottled water wherever you are, you must take it with you. Here’s where the “convenience†factor wears very thin. First, you must load a case or more into your shopping cart. Then, you unload it at the cash register to pay for it. Again, you load it into the shopping cart, and push it to your car. Unload the shopping cart, load it into your car. Unload your car, carry it into the house. Unpack it and load it into the refrigerator. Grab a few bottles to take with you, and fight with them until you have finished the last one. “Convenience†is not descriptive of this process.
Therefore, if bottled water is not “convenient,†only “accessible,†there has to be a better alternative. Tap water tastes awful, which started the bottled water craze in the first place. How about “filter as you drink?†Buy an inexpensive water filter bottle, take it with you (empty, if you like) and fill or refill it when you like, where you happen to be at the time. Lots more convenience; lots more availability, even. And when you factor in economy, portable water filter bottles win hands down!
