Literacy in the 21st Century

I recently read Is Google Making Us Stupid? an article that appeared in the Atlantic magazine.  Despite the harsh-sounding title, it is a thought-provoking article  touching on issues which have yet to be sufficiently researched.  Soon after that I watched an IDEO video called The Future of the Book which shows the power of new tools that will change literacy as we now think of it.
