As I expected, Jaron Lanier's book "Ten Arguments for Deleting Your Social Media Accounts Right Now" went quickly being only 176 pages long. Its an interesting read and a well made argument. What really grabbed my attention were the footnotes. Soooooo much great reference material I want to spend the time reading all the articles and boooks referenced in his book.
On to the next read! Maybe even finally finish up "Sync" :)
