“it is more difficult for us to imagine how people ever got along before fax, e-mail, mobile phones, computer networks, ect.”
Birkerts states this in his Chapter 11 and I think this strongly goes against his whole beliefs on technology. In this quote he is simply saying “it is diffucult for us to imagine how people ever got along before fax, e-mail, mobile phones, computer networks, ect”, In this whole book isn’t his thesis trying to tell his readers that technology is horrible. Thus, I truely believe if Birkerts took a look at P.G. the ‘imagine’ part of his quote would come to life.
It actually IS very hard for us to imagine where we would be in life today without technology, but also isn’t it true he could say…without technology, could we even imagine anything, because technology has taught us so much in todays life.
In P.G. you have to have a huge imagination for clicking on all parts of her.

stay with this idea–and go a bit further. PG does require imagination and is imaginative–a good point.
