Review # 1 was written on 2007-12-17 00:00:00 Rj Lemaster This book is like my Bible in digital journey. I keep rereading it to find inspiration. My fave part is when Negroponte writes that he has seen a prototyp e of touchscreen computer in early 1970s. Wow. Now people feel they are holding tech if they carry new tab, something which arent new at all

Review # 2 was written on 2008-02-09 00:00:00 Betty Clark I read this ten years ago and remember it as one of the most prescient books ever. Negroponte spends a and elot of time filling in the gaps between what you were supposed to know in the late 90's about the rise of the digital era, and what you actually absorbed from everyone else who were also just pretending to know what the difference between digital and analog meant. He's got a lot of really interesting predictions for the near future, many of which have proven correct. Do you know why CDs and MP3's are not as true-sounding as tapes and vinyl records? Do you understand the foundations of artificial intelligence? If either of these answers are no, then you're either already behind the understanding of your times or you're about to be. Read Negroponte's book and save yourself!
