It was a cute article, but ultimately pointless. I never owned e-books, so I can't comment on them. However, I have noticed a decline in people's ability to spell simple words. The media's use of the internet is intriguing. Normally they don't catch onto things this quickly, and people were saying that social media was a fad only a few years ago. It's amazing that stodgy old TV executives caught on so quickly. But now that I think about it, it makes sense. The advent of social media was such a huge shift in the way people find information and communicate that it is hard to imagine life without it. Just the other day I was reading a review of Harry Potter (a big theme of Harry Potter is finding information, and they find information in dusty old tomes.) and the reviewer made the excellent point that if they had "Wizard Google" they could have found all the information on Nicholas Flammel in five minutes, instead of five months.
