This is an article published in Newsweek in 1995, that predicted that what people says the Internet will do is wrong, and we should come to our senses. The Internet will never replace printed newspapers, people will always buy from a salesperson instead of online and telecommuting workers, and online books are just wild dreams.

I remember reading this article in 1995, online, when it first came out. Then had been reading it ever since.

Everything the writer predicted, word by word, which was supposed to NOT happen, is actually what happened, and is what the Internet currently stands as. :-P
