The Seattle Times has announced it's laying off 200 employees--another example of print media losing business while struggling to keep up with their online counterparts.
But what always bothers me about this apparent rush to put everything online is the people it leaves out. Not everyone can afford their own computer and internet access (it's true!). and even free library computers are not always accessible.
And I'm sure we all know older people who have not become comfortable with computers and still rely on newspapers for obituaries and other news items.
These people are being left behind and no one really seems to say anything about it.
