The New Yorker has an excellent Malcolm Gladwell review concerning the enduring virtues of paper, where he discusses a few books which are (ostensibly) more scholarly versions of Nicholson Baker's polemic against a paperless world. I suppose other media will follow paper's lead and continue to serve the applications for which they are uniquely qualified; perhaps television will yet remain in a more pure state, beyond the grasp of interactivity's sundry acronyms (pace TiVo, which is a fundamentally great tool).
