The June 2010 Issue of Wired Magazine brings us a review of a new book by Nicholas Carr titled The Shallows: What the Internet is Doing to Our Brains. It should be out some time in June 2010 from W. W. Norton and Company. The message I get is that we should balance the time we spend reading Internet material with hypertext links and other distractions with the time we spend reading linear text either online or in physical media. I look forward to reading the entire book and I strongly urge my readers to consider subscribing to Wired.
