People are Lazier to Read a Book

Nowadays, the use of internet technology has make human lazier to read a book. Most of us like and tend to search information via internet better than reading book page by page. There are many factors those make human lazier to read book such as:
The size of a book which is not compatible to bring
Only the visual aspect is involved
Book is easily damaged
Putu Laxman Sanjaya Pendit, Ph.D, researcher in the information & library of University of Indonesia said that now, in our time, students are more likely to brows and search information through the net, because in internet, there are some variations of learning, although in the reality there are almost the same either if we learn from a book or from internet. (

As a result, we can see that in the statistic, the number of internet user in the world, especially in Asia is increasing 240.7% from 2000 to 2007.(http://www.pengadilan.net/content/view/23/26/). So, from the sentences above, I conclude that from now on, we, human prefer browsing and surfing through the internet to read a book for searching information.

Language is an issue here, but we'll work on that.

The structure is good, but you need to maintain focus on the controlling idea.
