QUOTE OF THE WEEK

 

Compare yourself with those who on the Lord’s Day hear nothing except the dismal sound of the world. What a privilege it is for you to hear the proclamation of the gospel!

Net Ski

DateTuesday, November 16, 2010 at 06:26AM
"What the Net seems to be doing is chipping away my capacity for concentration and contemplation. Whether I'm online or not, my mind now expects to take in information the way the Net distributes it: in a swiftly moving stream of particles. Once I was a scuba diver in the sea of words. Now I zip along the surface like a guy on a Jet Ski."
--Nicholas Carr, The Shallows 
(I read this quote this morning, took a second to copy it and promptly forgot where I read it.  Perhaps another symptom of Net Ski?)

I sure can relate to this. I'm glad the quote wasn't longer or you would have lost me. :0)
