- Kevin Kelly, from Smithsonian's article "Reading in a Whole New Way""Books were good at developing a contemplative mind. Screens encourage more utilitarian thinking. A new idea or unfamiliar fact will provoke a reflex to do something: to research the term, to query your screen "friends" for their opinions, to find alternative views, to create a bookmark, to interact with or tweet the thing rather than simply contemplate it."
The irony is I found this quote on my iPad...
