FromVaughn Bell in Slate [http://goo.gl/YW1DW0]:
A respected Swiss scientist, Conrad Gessner, might have been
the first to raise the alarm about the effects of information
overload. In a landmark book, he described how the modern
world overwhelmed people with data and that this
overabundance was both "confusing and harmful" to the
mind.The media now echo his concerns with reports on the
unprecedented risks of living in an "always on" digital
environment.
