BBC has a op-ed titled Cultural past of the digital age that looks at the shift from print to digital culture. Technology journalist Bill Thompson obviously loves books for their asthetic sensibility, their perfect marriage of physical form and fuction. You get the sense of a nostalgia but he clearly understands the power of the digital, the practicality, portability of electronic media. Plus he gets a dig on Andrew Keen who wrote Cult of the Amateur that criticizes blogging culture, mash-ups, and social networking.
