correspondence

I'm reading Marshall McLuhan's letters right now.

I don't think you'll see letters published in the future. It would be too self-referential to say there would be blog archives, but there it is.

I wonder who was the last person to have their letters published. Has it happened? If not, when will it happen? it's going to happen.

What sort of societal affects does that shift have?

One things certain, I couldn't ask such immediate questions back in the day to such an unknown audience.
