Occam’s Revenge

Posted on 1 January 2010, 5:15 am, by zaine, under rant.

I pulled a book off the shelf that I have not read in 29 years yesterday. There it was, in good condition, no DRM, no revocation by “Big Corp.,” and  no outdated proprietary formats that killed it. Just open and read. And 29 years from now, I’ll still have my book and I’ll reread it then, free of charge, without having to purchase expensive technology to enjoy it.

Simplicity will always win over complexity. Low tech over Hi, when it comes to books.
