| 1 | F3: What do you think about newspapers? I- I- I usually read my newspapers from my news, from my i- from my iPhone, from er Helsingin Sanomat mm... |
| 2 | F4: s- App. |
| 3 | F3: The App. |
| 4 | F4: Yeah |
| 5 | F3: And I think it's a lot better to read from iPhone or from a mobile device because it's a lot more easier you don't have to turn these huge //pages// |
| 6 | F4: //[laugh]// |
| 7 | F3: and like in a bus when you're sitting next to someone it's nicer if she's reading like this |
| 8 | F4: mm |
| 9 | F3: not //this// |
| 10 | F4: //[laugh]// |
| 11 | F4: Well I think it- it's funny that er you think that way because I think like er- I actually tried this Helsingin Sanomat app //in my// |
| 12 | F3: //mm// |
| 13 | F4: iPhone but er- I think er- it was- it was too small when I- I didn't like my eyes hurted because it was er- the mobile phone is so small and I have to read the text from it so I //prefer// |
| 14 | F3: //mm// |
| 15 | F4: like the old-fashioned newspapers I think it- it's lovely because er- erm- in like if I have a... a Saturday or Sunday morning I woke up I drink my coffee and then I- then I read the paper //and// |
| 16 | F3: //mm// |
| 17 | F4: actually Helsingin Sanomat they changed their size to a smaller one so //I think it- it's// |
| 18 | F3: //Yeah that's true//. |
| 19 | F4: much easier to even though it is still big it's bigger than an iPhone but |
| 20 | F3: mm |
| 21 | F4: it's still like er- easier to read. |
| 22 | F3: I understand the point of mm like there's mo- more [prd]a- at- at- atmospherical[/prd] |
| 23 | F4: Yeah //[laugh]// |
| 24 | F3: //to// read it from //paper// |
| 25 | F4: //Well that's// the real paper |
| 26 | F3: but because people are so much in mobile devices and they erm they do f- er go to Facebook and other things so it's like easier to just get lost //in Helsingin Sanomat app// |
| 27 | F4: //[laugh]// |
| 28 | F3: er than to er take you're bag and take the er newspaper |
| 29 | F4: Yeah that's true //because er- e// |
| 30 | F3: //but// and also erm because there is so many er links in Facebook //and// |
| 31 | F4: //mm// |
| 32 | F3: other social media, so you just have to, someone has commented //on some article and then you// |
| 33 | F4: //so it- it's just to open that with one click yeah// |
| 34 | F3: just click on it and then read it and click the others and I read actually a lot of news, more than I think |
| 35 | F4: Mmm |
| 36 | F3: through Facebook just rode today like... twenty walls on a bus going to Helsinki. |
| 37 | F4: Mm //[inaudible]// |
| 38 | F3: And I think it's that more subtle way |
| 39 | F4: Mm |
| 40 | F3: To read news from the mobile device but when you're erm read the paper you're- you're actually knowing you read news and you |
| 41 | F4: Yeah |
| 42 | F3: like have to choose "I'm reading news now" |
| 43 | F4: Yeah |
| 44 | F3: and you think about. |
| 45 | F4: Yeah but you had a good point like er that what you said er if you're on a bus |
| 46 | F3: Mm |
| 47 | F4: or a train or something like using public transport |
| 48 | F3: [cough] |
| 49 | F4: it- it's much easier, sorry, to have the- the screen the- //the small// |
| 50 | F3: //Mhm// |
| 51 | F4: screen which you're looking at a- and the news er because if you have this huge newspaper it- it can be like hard to er take it with you |
| 52 | F3: Mhm |
