                                                   Digital is Better than print

              Digital has become a grand part of our lives as human beings evolve. Digital helps us more than using a printed source to read. Being able to look up words and references immediately enhances knowledge and fuller understanding than when a person reads something on paper and then searching it up later. When it comes to utilizing digital, we do not have to agonize about wasting paper or how much it impacts the environment. In Giancarlo Rivera’s “Digital versus Print” blog post he states many advantages and reasons why he believes that Digital is better than Print.
              You are extremely limited when you read a printed source such as a book or a magazine. “When searching on the web, if one does not understand text, they can look it up quicker than searching through the index or other books.” (Giancarlo) I believe what he said is true. When it comes to using digital to read you are unlimited to what you want to know. You can know more about what you are reading by quickly searching for a definition of a word on google, or getting more information about the story or article you are reading on the internet.
             When it comes to utilizing a digital, it is easier and faster to save the important information you would like to read again, or keep. Giancarlo sated in his blog which I strongly agree with “Technology is an easier way to obtain all the information one needs through gigabytes.” You can save anything you would like to keep just by saving it on your iPad, or laptop. Not only it is easy to save your favorite book or article, you can also save the page you were on if you can’t finish reading it.
              You can save a lot of time just by using digital. Not everyone has the time to drive to the store and shop for something they need, or drive to the doctor’s office just to make an appointment. You can quickly just go online and make appointment yourself, or use online websites to shop. Giancarlo stated “Technology is transforming us to be more time efficient and get things done the easier way.” Which is true. Digital is unlimited, we can use digital not only to read but to do little task we don’t have time to do.
              Generally speaking, digital is better than print in many ways. Many people are now using digital more than books or articles because digital is better to read, shop, and even communicate. Digital is just an amazing technology to use at home or at work. Just imagine how easy life would be just    because you have digital.
