We meet again in cyberspace . . .
. . . and I think that people try to take the material practices associated with the print/book-literate world with them into the digital one but it doesn't always work -- and so we develop new ones. I have an early-morning-logging-on routine that I think counts as a material practice.
But I have yet to bring the laptop into the bathroom. Kevin Smith does, though.

That's funny, my brother brings in food, televisions and phones...it's the one place my mother won't yell at him.
I think the material practice of "logging on" every morning is one example of how people are quickly letting themselves be tied down to a culture which while promising individual freedoms, may suggest the opposite.
