Information Surfing in Past Centuries

love books? yes. as much as kindle is highly the in-thing now - i hate reading from a screen! i tend to arm myself with little post-it tabs or a pencil for bookmarking. that wouldn't be possible would it on a kindle? ok perhaps digital bookmarking softwares could solve that or simply a tablet kindle ;). looks like every activity will soon be electronified! (aren't some of you exercising via Wii?)

anyhow people of the past may have been deprived of cool technology but they were well compensated with grand libraries like these! not exactly world wide web but large library (for) learning. see more from beachbungalow8.
