How has the Internet changed literary culture?

2nd Place, N. Katherine Hayles Award for Criticism of Electronic Literature by The Electronic Literature Organization

Reports of the book's death have been greatly exaggerated. Books are flourishing in the Internet era--widely discussed and reviewed in online readers' forums and publicized through book trailers and author blog tours. But over the past twenty-five years, digital media platforms have undeniably transformed book culture. Since Amazon's founding in 1994, the whole way in which books are created, marketed, publicized, sold, reviewed, showcased, consumed, and commented upon has changed dramatically. The digital literary sphere is no mere appendage to the world of print--it is where literary reputations are made, movements are born, and readers passionately engage with their favorite works and authors.
