I read this article this weekend…but was quite supprised, naively I suppose, at the attention that it has been getting on the intertubes. We all know that “paperless” quickly degenerates into the cliche, but there seems to be a deeper view of the cost of the paper gaining a foothold in our everyday discourse.
Pushing Paper Out the Door – New York Times
CHRIS UHLIK’S children can be found in their home computer lab almost every morning. Nicole is writing a story about her two lizards. Tony is playing an interactive spelling game, while Andy is learning multiplication tables. Even 5-year-old Joceline is clicking away at a storybook game.
Mr. Uhlik, an engineering director at Google, and his family live a practically paper-free life. The children are home-schooled on computers. Other sources of household paper — lists, letters, calendars — have become entirely digital.
