Quotation of the Day for March 3, 2011"Electronic storage is fragile and interconnected, subject to unpredictable shocks, corruption, and deletions including those instigated by dictatorial regimes and individual lunatics. The two-thousand-year-old codex--printed pages, bound between covers--therefore will not go the way of vinyl and the compact disc but will survive for content worth keeping while the e-book/e-pad formats and their future iterations will be more and more widely used, particularly for ephemera including soft-core pornography by women, the fastest-growing e-book category, and most reference works, such as encyclopedias, atlases, manuals, and so on that are constantly revised and may now be downloaded item by item." - Jason Epstein Submitted by: Mike Krawchuk Mar. 2, 2011  |
