The web has its advantages and disadvantages but it's the first place to turn to for info. I just try to only rely on credible sites. Great post and so true.

One thing I have noticed....while like you said magazines are a lot of times more in depth on whatever topic your reading about....usually most things I have already read about before reading the magazine. I think its just because on the web, when news hits. its there almost instantly where as in magazines that are usually published on a monthly basis you usually have to wait Yea the newspaper and other traditional ways of reading things aren’t going anywhere any time soon and are still very valuable.

I am with you 100% about the cell phone, yellow pages and remembering phone numbers. Now that I think about it, the only phone number that I remember my heart is my dad's home phone... don't even his cell phone lol. I too use the internet a good bit to find news, although I still watch television news a lot too. I tend to watch tv news when nothing else is on... its a good source for general news, stuff that I wouldn't know to look up otherwise (if that makes sense). Also, tv is still my best source for local news, as some of my local news websites are just terrible. Even with the internet more popular than ever, I still don't see newspapers or magazines going anywhere for a very long time. Most of the stories in magazines and many in newspapers are in-dept stories, stuff that is too long for tv news and probably would bore you in front of a computer. But with the easy of portability of print media, it makes these stories more practical to read and thus, the market remains :) Very good post and I enjoyed reading it.
