I chose this picture for my topic because it shows, albeit in a funny way, the evolution fo reading through the ages as Carr describes. At first reading consisted of simple messages or pictures on stone and then eventually developed into long and more complicated prose through literature and texts. Now, however, the face of reading has changed with the internet with shorter bursts of information taking precedence over longer and more traditional written works.
Note: This was a part of my research project before I decided on my final topic, but I thought it would be useful to keep on my blog to show its development.
