If your brain is always multitasking, or responding to technoprompts, there is no time or energy for undirected mental play. Furthermore, if you are consumed by the same information loop circulating around everyone else, you don't have anything to stimulate you into thinking differently. ... You don't have access to unexpected knowledge. You're just swept along in the same narrow current as everyone else, which is swift but not deep.

Forget about the moral imperative of creating a more stable, just world. The world is becoming increasingly connected and intertwined. Allowing injustice and human despair to fester will ultimately bring a pay back, even to those who might think they are most immune from it.

There are two ultimate fears, the annihilation of solitude and the annihilation of the crowd. We lose our identities if we are alone with no one to reflect us back on ourselves... or we lose our identities if we are in a mass of others; anonymous, corporate, overwhelmed by the babble.

We live in a nation where the winner of the most powerful office in the land may have been decided by a lousy user interface. So, if typical Americans have trouble choosing the right options on a butterfly ballot -- a sheet of paper with four arrows on the left, four arrows on the right and eight holes in the middle -- how can they be expected to figure out today's computers, Web sites and portable gadgets?
