Re: The end of paper
#2The author pretty much nails why we use paper and what will be needed to get rid of it.
To me, the main thing is instant-on. I want to be able to grab my reader and start jotting notes or reading a page with zero noticeable delay. Once I can do that, I'll stop buying packs of little cardboard-backed pads of paper.

#3This submission encouraged me to dig up a New Yorker article I recalled that reported some interestng perspectives on this topic.
I've posted the article in this thread:

I thought it was interesting enough to merit its own thread. I'm a bit surprised it hasn't appeared on HN previously (or so says google).
