"Twilight of the Books" I think it's coming. I'm not sure that it's a bad thing. TV is just such a much more immersive technology. With it's sound and images, it's much more powerful than reading. What gets lost is imagination. How many times have you seen a movie adaption of a book you've read and been confronted with how it didn't live up to what you'd imagined? I think reading and writing may revert to a priesthood. Someone is still going to have to write the scripts and directors will have to read them.
