But we will lose the millions of records being created daily in a dizzying array of electronic forms unless we find a way to preserve and keep them accessible indefinitely.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
If we don't record our own history on the Net, it will disappear.
So we should preserve it. I don't think that digital storage is necessarily a good thing, but I definitely think that digital manipulation is interesting.
With faster Internet and better computers, you'd better believe we're creating and consuming more digital data.
Sooner rather than later, any other form other than digital media will be a thing of the past. It won't vanish, but let's face it, this is seemingly the way of the future.
We live in a world of increasing dependence on electronic records and retrieval, unprecedented security and preservation concerns, and insufficient attention to civic and democratic education.

Electronic medical records are, in a lot of ways, I think the aspect of technology that is going to revolutionize the way we deliver care. And it's not just that we will be able to collect information, it's that everyone involved in the healthcare enterprise will be able to use that information more effectively.
Life is true to form; records are meant to be broken.
Getting rid of all the world records would be a bit of a radical move.
Technology has allowed people to make records really cheap. You can make a record on a laptop.
