Last weeks reading articles (Reading 3)

Reading 3

Just a personal note on the readings.

I loved the Wikipedia article, as well as the New Yorker article on the death of the newspaper. Both were very entertaining, informative and interesting. They directly related to each other as they both talked about the death of a paper medium, and migration to the digital world.

one thing that bugged me is the third article on research reports or whatever. Even on the test, I could barely remember what it was about even though I read it the day before. The problem wasn't so much the article itself, but the fact that it seemed to in no way relate to the other readings.

I get that it is an important topic, but the grouping of the articles made the most important piece of knowledge out of the three... forgettable. the readings tend to be a lot more interesting when they all have a connection on some level.

Anyways, just a rant to whoever cares.
