Our thoughts and consolations go out to JD Salinger, a fellow Columbia writer, who sadly passed away at the ripe age of 91 on January 27, 2010. He will be missed very much by all who have had the privilege to experience his youthful and boisterous prose. The great beat poet reflects on the changing digital age in this NY Times article, and actually had mostly harsh words for it, calling text messages “abhorrent”. It took reporter John Markoff a while just to even reach the guy, as he lives in California without electricity. However, when asked what technology he actually uses, he said his laptop, because he “like[s] the storage it has”. The article also prints a poem entitled “Why I Take Good Care Of My Macintosh” Check it out here: Head on over to facebook to sign up to read or just to attend our Second Annual soiree!
