I READ THE PERSPECTIVE "AWAY FROM THE ICEBERG'S" AND I HAVE A FEW THOUGHTS ON LEARNING 2.0 IN GENERAL. I UNDERSTAND THAT THERE IS A 55 PERCENT DROP IN CIRCULATION OVER THE PAST 12 YEARS ON PRINTED MATERIALS BECAUSE OF OUR DIGITAL COLLECTIONS. I'M VERY DISAPPOINTED IN THAT. I REALLY HOPE ONE DAY THAT THEY DON'T THINK ABOUT DOING AWAY WITH PRINTED MATERIALS AND GOING TOTALLY TO DIGITAL COLLECTIONS. I HATED IT WHEN THE DID WITH THE CASSETTE TAPES AND VIDEOS. IT'S KIND OF SCARY THESE DAYS THAT IF YOU DON'T KNOW HOW TO USE THE COMPUTER, YOUR BASICALLY ILLITERATE. WHAT ABOUT THE PEOPLE WHO CAN'T READ IN GENERAL. I'M OLD FASIONED AND I LOVE OUR PAPER BOOKS. IT COULD BE GREAT OPPPORTUNITY FOR PEOPLE THAT LIKE USING THESE PROMISING MODELS, BUT I'M STILL NOT COMFORTABLE WITH IT YET.
