It is starting to feel like this class is overloading my brain. I keep taking notes but my notebook is getting pretty full. This latest thing, library thing is pretty neat. I can see other poeple using it, but I have a lot of books at home I wouldn't even want to try cataloging, it would take way too much time. I can see for some people it would be a way to keep track of the books they have read. Then when they went to the library they could check to see if a book they found was on a list. I am amazed at how much you can now do on line on a computer, but are we going to become the age of printed books something you only see in a on line museum?
I remember on the old Star Trek the time when Captain Kirk has to hire a lawyer and the lawyer has actual books he uses. I hope we never get to the point where computers is all you need, and the pleasure of carrying a book and reading wherever you can becomes obsolete.
