We are surrounded by technology that allows us to read content on-line. From Kindle to the iPad, the laptop to the iPhone, we can pretty much read what we want, when we want. But should we throw out the old to bring in the new? Or is there room for both?
Who needs books? And other "archaic" things!

So until the day I hit the road to travel the globe I will keep doing things the "old fashioned way"
Great post, thanks

While I have never thought things were better (generally) in the past - that I wouldn't go back for anything - I do still like things I'm used to, and usually hate change when it means I have to change. I don't mind progress or improvement, and I do think many things are better now than 30-50 yrs ago. But Sunday I was at a family birthday, saw my sister's smart-device (about as big as a credit card), and the writing was so small I'd have to hire someone to read it to me, or use a microscope.

I will never, NEVER, EVER read a book on Kindle, nor will I ever own a Kindle. I'm part of that old-fashioned breed who despises tech. I didn't mind dialing, yes, actually 'dialing" a phone, nor did I mind standing up to turn the dial to change the TV channel.
Businesses must change with the times, but they also have to take into account people who loved "the good old days" and Market to them in an old-fashioned way.
Great article on the dichotomy of modernity vs. "good-old."
