I love the internet! I use it for so many things, including finding books to read! I also enjoy reading books. I don't know if I can choose a favorite of the two, because they are two of my favorite things in all the world! :)

I think the future is not so black and about the book.
Paper as a means of information, enlightenment, relaxation, leads a fight with the internet, but it will separate.
I do not know how soon, but the Internet will resume its place, the means for communication, because this is, and the book will regain its place in the library and the computer in the form of "e-book. "
Certainly nostalgic now will not be, but future generations will rediscover the benefits of book written on paper.
As has been rediscovered after cotton and other natural solids polyester explosion as synthetic food craze passed back to the natural ones, so will re-written the book wins place properly, if not before the Internet, even with him.
The Internet is just a means of tracking and conveying information and will remain so. Each will bring his house (as it does now) just the information that it stores on different interests and backgrounds. Rather, storage and visualization environment information may be in fierce competition with the information written on the cellulose support. It's easy access to information on CD, memory stick or other media via computer than to the book. A big advantage will be nostalgic simplicity that can transfer digital data on paper, so now more than ever, we can remove the link from our home printer and any book on the internet, costs are sometimes lower than the price of the book in the library.
My fear, however, comes not from the Internet fight - book written, but the perception of the importance of each new generation.
Pragmatism does not allow young people from thinking (notice grudgingly) lost time with a book when feeding vanities, made ??by material accumulation is more important than spiritual food.
It's a competition of minds on a material and not spiritual.
