E-readers vs.books
I think that this photo shows how convenient the e-readers are. All of those books can be held on that small tablet, which is smaller then most of the books on the shelves. I think that it is important to move with the times in terms of technology. Like we discussed in class, everything is moving in this direction, so why would we expect our books not to? I don't think that we are facing an extinction of books yet because so many people do still prefer to hold the book as an object in their hands. When it comes down to it, it's all about moving forward. I'm sure that many were opposed to the first book rather than reading scrolls and they had the same ideas about the printing press versus the manuscripts. We continue to change our ways in order to be more efficient because lets face it efficiency is money.
