I commented on Mr. Fisch's, the Fischbowl, blog. I commented on the artcile: A Need For Textbooks. Here is what I wrote:
Dear Mr. Fisch,
I found this idea very interesting. It seems to be that textbooks are losing their power to newer technologies. I think in the near future text books will be out dated and all text books will be online so they can be accessed anywhere. Without text books the world would be a lot easier for many people. For one, there would be no more hauling of heavy books to and from school. Another reason no more physical textbooks would be easier is there could never be any lost or damaged textbooks. It seems as though the online textbooks seem to be superior to physical textbooks.
There are some negatives to put all things digital though. For example if a computer someone was using shut down he or she would not be able to access the information that they need. Another problem with making textbooks all digital is for the time being it would not be practical cost wise. Not everyone can afford to by there own laptop and the school would not be able to provide enough laptops to accommodate every student. I think the concept is a great idea but that this concept will not become a reality for several years.

You did a very good job! You always put a funny aspect to it and that makes it more interesting. You did a very good job with looking at the audience and speaking loud and clear. Good job!
Nowlan, good presentation. You had good details and summaries of your blogs. You also had good eye contact. Great job.
Nowlan, you had a great presentation. Good eye contact and PLN's. Keep it up!
Nowlan! I agree that if someone has a Myspace, or a Facebook, they can't have things that maybe their students, or boss can see. I also agree that even the 15 year olds on Myspace have more appropriate things on their Myspaces then people 22 years old! Great job!
Nowlan good job on keeping eye contact with us as well as summarizing articles for us.
Nowlan-Good job on the plns that you choose for your presentation. You had very good eye contact and spoke very clearly and slow which made very easy to follow for me. Other than that good job.
