Nic: Signing Off To Read A Book

On Facebook, Nic Case/Rants, Raves, & Random Thoughts writes: "Attention interweb friends: I'm logging off to go read a book. Yes, I said 'book.' It's what we did before the internet was invented." I not only applaud Nic for signing out to read a book. But I must confess that I read far fewer books today than I did when I began blogging/Tweeting/Facebooking. In fact, when it comes to books, I now have the attention span of an MTV addict. How about you?

Question: Do you read more books or /less books today than you did five years ago? Are you currently reading a book? Which one?
