Short Stories are no longer popular. Magazines are popular if they have pictures. <br /><br />I asked a friend of mine who used to love reading. He says no one has patience and concentration to read more than 5 lines. He lost reading qualities too.<br /><br />Internet has done a lot of good things but on the other hand it has made people impatient with quick access to just the specific information people are looking. One does not need to read around or understand the concept. Internet tells all.<br /><br />I work in technology (on developing faster internet) yet these are my opinions.Amrithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16023510703283897521noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2372511622978085955.post-55009583696292293452010-11-12T12:21:17.430+00:002010-11-12T12:21:17.430+00:00Thanks for the interesting article!
