Classics In Danger?

Despite being a huge proponent of technology in education, I’m sometimes fearful that the Internet will do for classical literature what pop has done for classical music. Will we soon see a time when that “stuff” just isn’t read anymore? I think we’re well on the way there already.

On the other hand, if we can use the net to get kids reading again, maybe they will eventually yearn for something more absorbing than the expedient fluff they are barraged with online.

Whadayathink??
