Having drawn the comparison myself, and later seeing others do likewise, that the internet is 'as big as the printing press', it occurred to me that ebooks are therefore the equivalent of pamphlets. The early presses allowed knowledge to be spread from outside the control (and censorship) of the monk-scribes. Nowadays, the mainstream media has become corporatized, and only on the internet does there still remain some independence.

Watching in amazement as the words appear on the screen before me as if I'm reading them for the first time before even being aware of having thought them. The novel (epocalypse) was basically five short stories, none of which knew how they would end before beginning, and I was excited to know how each would play out. In some cases I changed or shortened endings, but mostly I simply did not know what to expect until it was written.
