It's time for an UNUTTERABLY SILLY POLL!

What was the format of the last e-book book you read?

Poll options taken from Smashwords lists. Gimme a second.

Does that include re-formatted books? I have a Nook but I buy some books from Amazon and convert them to ePub. So I checked ePub and mobi because I'm reading two books right now, one bought from B&N and the other from Amazon.

Even if it was originally downloaded as a different format, ePub is the format in which I read.

I've never created a poll, but I think this poll should have used radio buttons instead of check boxes.

.mobi, I believe. Either way, it was some Amazon something or other.

I was reviewing one of the PDF books by Bookboon. They're apparently doing really well with their free-with-ads textbook model, which they started in Denmark.

Actually, I'm happy for the checkboxes instead of the radio buttons. I frequently read a fiction (typically ePub) and non-fiction (PDF or dead tree) concurrently. And it just doesn't seem right to say one or the other when there may be a 2 hour gap between them.

What did you read it in?

"Wev" is short for "whatever", because I know I missed some.

I've never created a poll, but I think this poll should have used radio buttons instead of check boxes.
I love that no matter which way I go, someone complains about whether the poll is multi-choice or not, because I guarantee that if I'd used radio, someone would have said "both, because I was reading on my Sony but then I got called away and had to finish on my phone's Kindle app."

And by "love", I mean "dread". It's an UNUTTERABLY SILLY POLL, it's not supposed to be perfect, so can we dial back the nit-pickery? Please?
