Interview on Bit Literacy at tompeters.com

Why does having 3,000 emails in your inbox degrade your quality of life?
MH: Bits are heavy. There's a myth that bits are weightless and frictionless and we can have it all. That's just not true. Physically speaking, bits, as electrical impulses, don't weigh anything. But psychologically or emotionally speaking, bits are very heavy.
