Another great book I would also recommend is by Nicholas Carr called The Shallows: What the Internet is Doing to our Brain. Small's book is an easier read but Carr's is very well regarded but a little more heady.

We prefer they read than spend hours online, on the phone, or watching TV. I'm going to get this book. The exercises about reading social clues sounds fascinating!
