The End of Books as We Know Them ?

         As a reader I tend to be more auspicious of my reading materials. It varies on its appearance or the content of ones material. Due to this modernizing world, we cannot elude from the new technologies that have been populating our interests. Because of this, books and any old-fashioned written materials have been deteriorating due to proliferating technology.
        Since the era of cellphones aggrandized an intellectual's mind, we are captivated with its amazing functionality. Mails and other stationary systems have been deteriorating drastically. Mankind were easily brainwashed by the persuading commercials and other means of media. Since then, we can see from child to adult; everybody have a certain gadget that they are holding. Whether at home or at public, it is inevitable.
        Moreover, the effect of this matter have affected the book merchandising industry. Apple, Samsung, LG, and other big technological companies have stepped-on their ways to eliminate the traditional book making industry gradually. From my observations, I myself have slobbered to the world of technology. I was somewhat enslaved with the curse of technology. I cannot elude away since it has a captivating charisma that even I cannot withstood. The so called “tablet” have been really a top-notch for its “user's friendly” aspect. Because of this, even a flimsy wicked looking old person can have a knowledge in this so called “tablet”. The zooming feature of this gadget can make the letters bigger and wider which can be a really “user's friendly” to those who have a weak eyesight. The contingency of rapid deterioration of franchising an old-fashioned book is big.
        Finally, as years continues to revolves, and people gains new knowledge. We won't be wondering if the world will begin to the era of “the extinct books”. Scientists are craving for the discoveries of the unknown, so the tendency of the elimination of traditional books is high.
