neoteric \nee-uh-TER-ik\, adjective:
Recent in origin; modern; new.

Neoteric derives from Greek neoterikos, from neoteros,
"younger," comparative of neos, "young, new."


Quote: Electronic books, they say, are asking them to make mental transition -- to veer from their ingrained appreciation for the printed books that fill our nation's more than 120,000 public, academic and special interest libraries -- to depend on a neoteric gizmo that disrupts the sacred union between man and book.
--Charlotte Moore, "Bedtime for binderies?" [1]Austin

So? SL fills the bill as Neoteric.

:cool: :cool: :cool:
