• Somewhere to be creative.

30. The difference between
a Blog

• A blog is for a conversation.
• A wiki is for collaboration.

32. Students today can't prepare bark to
calculate their problems. They
depend on their slates, which are
more expensive. What will they do
when the slate is dropped and it
breaks? They will
be unable to write.

33. Thamus told Theuth that the discovery
of letters would
create forgetfulness. Learners would
not use their memories. They would
trust the written characters and not
remember it for themselves. "the
specific which you have discovered is
an aid not to memory, but to
reminiscence, and you give your
disciples not truth, but only the
semblance of truth: they will be
hearers of many things and will have
learned nothing: they will appear to be
omniscient and will generally know
nothing; they will be tiresome
company, having the show of wisdom
without reality.
From Plato's Phaedrus
