Neil Postman died in 2003. His questions about the impact of technology on our minds continue to echo


                      • Whose problem is it?
                  • What new problems might be created by solving the original problem?
                  • Which people and what institutions will be most seriously harmed by this new technology?
                  • What changes in language are being forced by these new technologies?
                  • What sort of people and institutions gain special economic and political power from this new technology?
                  • What is the problem to which this technology is a solution?
