It still feels odd and even surprising that some people read information in
paper form. I've been living paperless for years and I enjoy search, indexing,
hierarchical sorting, version control, etc. Paper won't survive forever, but
like the newspaper, TV, and radio, it'll survive. Maybe capacity of use will
decline...
When it comes to computing, being able to use, test, and modify code seems
essential. Hyperlinks help too.
