And I'm liable to steal/borrow from it. Feel free to do the same to me.... This is a very cool list, Bradley. I’m going to link to it of that’s okay with you. And I’m liable to steal/borrow from it.

I'll dig them up, though I've decided to make Ong optional reading only for those whose interests converge on historicizing the literacy/electracy shift. I hope to post an updated schedule later today... I haven’t seen those articles; thanks for pointing them out.

As for Ong, have you seen either "Information and/or Communication: Interactions" (<i>Communication Research Trends</i> 16.3 (1996): 3-17) or "Digitization, Ancient and Modern: Beginnings of Writing and Today's Computers" (<i>Communication Research Trends</i> 18.2 (1998): 3-21), both of which are reprinted in <i>An Ong Reader</i>? They're both dated now and may not be what you're looking for, but they do help update <i>Orality and Literacy</i> some. Ong seems to have been making what I'm calling a "digital turn" in the 1990s (making a distinction between electronics and computers akin to the distinction between "writing" or "literacy" in general and chirography and print as specific instances. The two essays mentioned above are just a small amount of Ong's digital work. I purposefully haven't delved too much into it yet because I'm scared it might consume my attention. When I hand my dissertation over to my committee, I'm going to start reading the 40,000 word manuscript (planned to be 50,000 words) titled <i>Language as Hermeneutic: A Primer on the Word and Digitization</i>.
