There are a few things that I found kind of interesting in this chapter and they are:

1. The ability to create clones makes the transfer of information more likely to occur than if you had to resort to a copy machine and the postal service to move the same file; the mechanics of distribution become transparent.
2. The defenition of digital literacy- the ability to understand and use information in multiple formats from a wide range of sources when it is presented via computers.
3. A digital read on literacy also involves being able to understand a problem and develop a set of questions that will solve that information need.
