And, finally, to choose what to listen to on a fine summer s day. blinkist is an app that takes non fiction books and breaks them down into 15 minutes worth of content which you can either read or listen to. each chapter, or blink as it is called, sums up a key message from the book and, yes, i know this concept is not for everyone. orfor all the time. of course there are times when you want to listen to or read the whole book and i am worried that sometimes it does stop me, but generally this just gives you an opportunity to learn about subjects that you may not want to invest so much time in. so there you have it. maybe all the relaxation, entertainment and activity you could possibly want without needing to go anywhere. or. ..maybe not. i was doing this fine yesterday before we were filming. basically you just want to play with some toys? yes. but i only get to do it twice a year. at ces and in the summer. ....
