Reading Response Unit 14
The DaVinci Institute
I don't think that literacy will ever go away and we'll become a verbal society again. Just think about advertisement, how could that only be verbal? Now, I can see the technology becoming largely verbal, but that I don't forsee happening for quite some time, certainly not 2050. Another part of the article I don't like is the suggestion of having space at the library for band practice and such, I don't believe that even fits in with a libraries mission. Same with an art studio and theater-drama practice rooms, why would these be in the library and not the local community center or school?
I do think it's a great idea though that libraries should be at the forefront of teaching the public new technologies, in so far as the library is able to obtain them by monetary support.
What Cloud Computation Really Means
Well, it would have been nice if this article would have answered it's own title, but the information provided was a bit cloudy (ha! ha!). From what I understand of cloud computation from this article is that it has many different meanings and interpretations. No one definition is provided so I don't understand at all what it is. Or perhaps it was just over my head...either way, I got nothing from it and don't understand what cloud computation is now any more then I did before I read it.
