Technology vs Literacy

What is the difficulty and urgency of the problems associated with technology vs literacy?

First what is literacy?  Literacy is the ability to read and write, essentially.  Technology is the use of technical means in life by ways of engineering, technical science, industrial arts, and pure science.  What is the problem?  Society is beginning to see a shift in the way people learn.  People through technology are reading differently and writing differently.  How does this affect the way we learn?  I don't really know.  The urgency involved is that everyone needs everything right away.  I don't think people take the time anymore to sit and let things sink in.  The idea of brain percolation means that one soaks up knowledge and dwells on it for some time (like reading a book).  People are reading and sharing through technology and alarmingly fast rates.  They don't take the time to listen anymore.

What is the final solution?
Finding a way to integrate the urgency of technology and the critical thinking essential for literacy.  How do we do this?  I have no clue.  Maybe the world just needs to slow down for a minute.  Yet technology is making that impossible.  We're lightyears ahead of where we could ever have imagined we'd be.  There are ways to promote literacy through technology and as a librarian, we can find them.  We have to target the younger ones and get them excited about reading through technology.
