Which article do you find more persuasive, and why? I read both articles back to back, and I feel like even if I didn't completely agree with it I tended to sway more to the side of the "The Internet has Created a Generation of Great Writers." That article got me reading and still interested because it managed to have its facts and information in order (first, second and third) and it made me keep reading to see their reasons. Which is true? i do believe that "You Won't Finish this Article" is a little bit more accurate, only because as the article started it right away gave you statistics on how many people will actually finish reading the article and getting the near the end she assumed that no one finished. I feel like she was more spot on that the other article and I really agreed with it. Can they both be true at the same time, or do they contradict each other? I feel like they can be both true, one mostly talks about reading online and the other about writing styles. In your experience, has the Internet affected the way you read and write? I don't think it has, only my grammar, sure sometimes the short "fast text" escapes me but it's kind of an impulse I do it because I'm used to it, but it's nothing I can't fix. I do however think that it has effected me when I read. I've noticed that instead of reading an entire article I look up key words and read from there. And I do notice that when I. Read a book I need to re-read a paragraph because I was too busy looking for shortcuts. Something that I eventually get over half way through a book, but when starting it is very hard to stay attentive.
