Quotation of the Day for October 7, 2013



"After two hours, an item of information is considered old. In this sense, the digitization of information is indeed the revolution it was heralded to be, but only in the sense of a rotation around an axis. The digital revolution is first and foremost a permanent movement centered on itself."

- Laurent Beccaria and Patrick de Saint-Exupéry, from "Content and Its Discontents", in the October 2013 Harper's Magazine.
