While interning at the American Library in Paris a few summers ago, I came across this issue of Library Journal from 1950. This is sweet, beautiful proof that we’ve been worried about new media making reading obsolete for oh … ever.

The more things change, the more they stay the same.

There’s room for everything today - we’re raising a generation that will never know information to be a trickle or a trip to the library. Everything has its place. It just needs to be good enough to merit that spot.

pretty amazing.

Marissa Mayer To Lead Yahoo

parislemon:

Part of me hopes that as one final middle finger to a rival, Mayer and Google arranged to have this announced on the day that Microsoft announced their next version of Office. Because that would be awesome. Microsoft should have owned the press today, instead they were forgotten by lunch time. 

I’mma let you finish, but…

ouch.

Do the Google Glasses Augmented Reality Specs remind anyone of the earpieces in ‘Army of Ghosts’?
ibovaryyou:

Anyone else thinks this could be our equivalent of the cybermen EarPods?
I’m scared.



my thoughts exactly.
