In his 2008 article for the New York Times, James Gleick talks about "the gloom that has fallen over the book-publishing industry" to describe the the negative impact of digitalizing books in the book-publishing industry.
In this article he describes the already decline in paper-books sales due to the rise of digital platforms such as Kindle, epub, etc, and how the future of book-publishers looked grimer because of an agreement between authors, publishers and Google to allow the scanning and digitalizing of books to make them accesible in website and digital platforms.
This agreement would be dramatic for the sectors of the book-publishing industry dealing with marketing, archiving and distributing physical paper books.
Answer:
Koosh Balls
Explanation:
Invented by Matt Burton and Scott Stillinger in 1998, a Koosh Ball is a small toy composed of many rubber strands attached to a plastic-metallic core. Stillinger came up with the idea to develop the Koosh ball as he became frustrated when trying to teach his children how to play catch. He devised a toy ball that would be easy to catch, and soft enough so as not to hurt anyone. By 1988, shortly after it was launched, the Koosh ball had become immensely popular as a fun, safe and cheap toy for all ages. Talk show host Rosie O'Donnell shooting Koosh balls out to her audience members has become a staple of her show.
