But seriously, I find it funny that teenagers and young adults today, who older people assume to be dumbed-down by too much TV and video games and too few books, are much quicker to adopt reading/writing-based media like texting and Web surfing and email and instant messaging and blogs. Newer technologies that older people might naturally associate with mindlessness are nevertheless based on reading and writing, not talking.
