Bolter Test

Some people think that new media cannot prosper because books are easier to read in bed or in the bathtub. This line of reasoning has been known as the Bolter Test since it was first identified in Writing Space.

One publisher, perhaps taking the Bolter Test way too seriously, has made books that are engineered for reading in the tub -- with a friend! Aqua Erotica.
