Paper, bits, or PDF?
There's a very interesting conversation going on between J D Lasica and Vin Crosbie on the value and meaning of digital reproductions of newspapers. Crosbie takes issue with Lasica's depiction of PDF fans as having "old-time media inclinations". Fascinating. As a 'old-time' newspaper reader who loves online but also really likes the chance to see a newspaper as it ran, ads, layout and all (at least occasionally), I'm enjoying this debate.
