I heard that this morning and I was getting agitated when Grossman complained that reading "on a screen" lessens the reading experience. He intimated that it wouldn't be read in the same way (on the Kindle, he said you keep scrolling and scrolling and there's no page turns). Clearly the guy knows nothing about ereaders.

As for Nicholas Carr's experience, I can safely say I've never read a book and thought "where are the links?"
