Print vs. Digital

I'd also like to start out this journal the way that Claire did; by using an example to show why I find print favorable in different cases. Before I came to college my parents thought that buying me a "nook" would be a great way to read and it would help save some money in the long run. I have never actually read a book on the nook, and I think it may still be in my room back at home; to add insult to injury....I've bought a book since I've been up here. The relationship between print and digital media, I believe, is that all digital media was once print. The preferability of each medium is solely dependent on personal preference. For example, you see in classes that students use their computers and iPads to take notes while I take notes with pen/pencil on notebook paper. This may also be true for air pilots, some may prefer to use technology to add their notes while most prefer to use the paper; even though it is more difficult to understand after the fact. 
I believe that digital is already on the war path to replace print, although I do not believe that it will ever fully replace this because their will always be those who cannot and will not only use computers. America is becoming a desensitized nation, those who would previously send holiday cards may now just send an email or post on social media sites and things that would have been personal are now publicly viewed by your 2,379 "friends" on Facebook or Instagram. Some people, like me, want to keep some aspects of life and literature sentimental as opposed to "easy" and "convenient." Everyday writing can very much be digital and print, it is just dependent on the way a person makes a certain text; which is not independent of any medium. If digital mediums replace that of print, than everyday writing will not be effected in general.
