Week #6 - Thing #15

The Machine is Us/ing Us is an eye opening jolt of tech reality.
In reading Mr. Anderson's Away From the Icebergs it sounds like he's ready to jump ship and discount actual books. When browsing for non-fiction books in our small libraries I find our collection too small, because contrary to what he says, the information, the DETAILS of a subject CANNOT always be found on the internet, but can be found in a book that I have to order ILL. Further, when reading a fiction , who wants to burn their eyes out on a computer, when you can curl up in a cozy chair?
