I just read an excellent blog entry from Paul Angiolillo at Technology Review that compellingly demonstrates the need for hybridity in technology. Too often I find either nostalgia for older ways that, to be fair, were sometimes abandoned too quickly, or pedal-to-the-metal futurism that scorns anything pre-1999. The truth about technology, like most human truths, is much more complex, interesting, and provocative, and Paul’s blog entry today is a fine example of deep and precise thinking on this topic. More, please!
