It seems I'm forgetting details within books much faster than about 10-15 years ago.
Back then, I could remeber about anything I read only once for months on end; now I'm having trouble remembering details of books I read a few weeks ago. I don't think this has to do with e-reading, because the same is happening with regard to movies, or music.
To be honest, I find it disconcerting. I'm used to reading or hearing something once, and then remembering it for months or even years, and it seems this is becoming more difficult. I could understand that had I been 78, but I'm barely into my 30's.
