Digital technology could not kick out the book and library culture in Japan. Every area has public library with city network! The shops, clinic, restaurant even barbershop book book corner and small library at least! As like as other children my son Koronetto also likes regular reading and library work.

As a digital culture’s practitioner, before come in Japan; I was proud and felt good on digital technology. I thought, I would be able to read all books, as I need easily over Internet. I always search good books in net, even 1% also not available in web! Most of books cover page only available in Internet! I am disappointed on the limitations of new media. The speak must , but act less! With huge distribution power – the social media makes shallowness in knowledge culture, intelligence, and innovations. Most of Internet use cannot make time to read basic things although whole day swim in web.

In Japan, copyright very strong and active. People does not love piracy! However they  show respect to rights of writers and business of publishers along with reading. I tried to discover the real motif of Japanese internet use. Most of people use it as communication and business tool, not as emotional platform. The use newmedia just like a upgrade version of oldmedia.

In my boyhood, I loved to read in library. Every afternoon at least 1-2 hours I spent in library on extra curriculum books-reading which help me to develop myself easily! I regret,  Internet robbed my book-reading habits for last 14 years. Now I am trying to restore my lovely reading habit. I encourage my son to read printed books, than digital at net! He agrees and loves to read regularly.
