Are People Reading More?

A recent poll by Gallop suggests that the popular concern that people are reading less than ever is not correct.

How about you... are you reading more than in the past?  I certainly consume pages of online news everyday, but still enjoy my magazines as well.  Most fiction is reserved for long airplane rides (of which I have many).  

This chart taken from a short post in the Atlantic.

Of course, this does not address the number of unread books piled in the study... I keep buying books much quicker than I get to reading them.  I find it a motivating sight... great titles on the shelf waiting for their moment in my hands.  I was gifted with a Spindle last holiday, but still have not downloaded my first book.
