Well, I suppose the proof is in the reading. I started to drift about half way through. I've also noticed that I stopped reading books many years ago and greatly prefer short stories, graphic novels, and visual (movies, TV) input to "reading a book."
I fall into the camp of computer-users for more than 25 years now. I also tend to go with new ideas, technological or otherwise, because it's interesting. I'm not afraid if reading dies out. Other things will take its place, the size and shape of which I cannot even imagine (which is why I work at a day job and don't make the big bucks, I suppose.)
I found a new search engine recently that is a major shift from what we've seen so far: searchme.com. Give it a look and let me know what you think. As a visual thinker, it has my attention.
