To add to your great post, here are some questions listed at a website for one of his books: Does the internet really bring us together ... or does it isolate us from each other? Suppose the network replaces newspapers, books, libraries, and teachers. Is that a good thing? Who is hurt by computing & networks? (it's not who you think!) Do computers and networks really belong in the classroom? Why does the network promise so much, yet deliver so little?
