Response to my post
I fully accept the advantages of digital books--but I'm not sure you got my concern. How do people get stimulated to explore new areas of interest if we lose libraries and bookstores? I'm not saying it's not possible--but that I'm concerned about using things like search engines that try to learn our likes and dislikes and therefore funnel us towards reading material that will already agree with our pre-conceived notions.
You mentioned that you are reading more than ever before. How are you finding information about other things to read-and do you think you're reading about a broader range of topics? I'm not criticing--I'm truly interested as I'm probably missing out on ways to broaden my reach and intellect (if any).
