RE: Electronic or print?

I have long thought of what we are doing not as electronic 
publishing, but as distributed print publishing...

And as long as the articles we produce are artificially limited 
by the 2-dimensional nature of paper, and the resultant narrative 
structure, I suspect it will stay that way.

If/when publishers (and, of course, their authors) start to think 
of presenting information in more useful ways that are enabled by 
the multi-dimensional Web, then printing them out will become an 
impossibility.
