Does the Brain Like E-Books? - Room for Debate Blog - NYTimes.com:

"Right now, networked digital media do a poor job of balancing focal and peripheral attention. We swing between two kinds of bad reading.

Or we suffer marginal distraction, as when feeds or blogrolls in the margin (”sidebar”) of a blog let the whole blogosphere in."
