I’m reading this on my laptop. I read Tai Chi Qi & Jin by Stuart Alve Olson on my kindle and watch xing yi vids on the ipod touch. Also put everything I want to or can remember about your teachings on my blog. It’s pretty interesting to go back and re-read all the things I’ve forgotten or have been further illuminated by practice. And weird to see all the hits on the blog from all over the world. The Yang Style Taijiquan push hands curriculum cd is a superb reference to the practices from the outside looking in. (whereas in class one mostly identifies the routines internally and then is usually too tired to take in how it actually looks and this is unusual in that most tai chi classes… one takes in how everything looks versus how one feels.)
The ability to pull in lots of info from the web on tai chi is pretty cool, The videos that were not available 15 years ago… It’s fantastic to see people like Sun Jian Yun doing sun tai chi. It’s pretty fun to do searches on key words in tai chi principles to see what pops up.

Hi!
I am reading this on and study on my laptop (and old powerbook G4.) I get noticfications on my Verizon smart phone (3G) but too busy to actually read info. Just check appts., etc.
When I receive kung fu vidieos etc, from colleagues and my teacher, I see it on the phone but wait till I get home to really see it and/or to respond.
Mostly, I will text if something exciting shows up and direct person to check it out and get back to me later.,
Hope this helps!
Val

I’m reading on an iPhone. I use it for email, scheduling, to look things up ( like class schedules, directions), my denture database is in it, it’s amazing…I do have a PC at work that I sync w/ but at this point I think a Mac would be as good (didn’t used to work w/ my real estate software, does now)

Thanks Brian – I would have included the ‘old book smell’, but alas (or thankfully), technology isn’t there yet.

Very well written….I was drawn into it and shared some of the energy you experienced in selecting and enjoy the sensory elements of the book search. Thanks for sharing. Brian
