> Check out the link below for some excerpts from a speech the Librarian of Congress gave last week. In particular, he makes some pretty broad and sweeping generalizations about books versus computer text. Since we've got a crowd here that is literate in both media, I was wondering what people thought. I'm going to sleep soon (I feel asleep!) so don't have the energy for a lengthy post of my own, but will be sure to respond to any discussion that hopefully gets going....
