"The Virtue of Forgetting" triggers discussion

"Delete: The Virtue of Forgetting in the Digital Age," by I+I director, Viktor Mayer-Schönberger, has been on a tour in the US and Europe for the past few weeks. In addition to the numerous responses it has generated in the media and the blogosphere, presentation of the book started a number of interesting discussion on the role of memory and the ability to forget in our hyper-mediated reality. Last week, "Talk of the Nation," one of the premier shows on NPR, hosted Viktor for a conversation about the book. In addition, Daily Kos, the leading liberal blogging community in the US, hosts an open thread with a discussion of "Delete" - it is worth checking out!
