Are we now too busy to read more than a sentence at a time? It's beginning to look that way, at least to Andy Bodle, who mourns what he sees as the coming demise of the paragraph in favor of choppy sentences: "Paragraphs allow us to group gobbets of information together in (more or less) coherent units. A long paragraph can be a reasoned, nuanced discourse. Lots of short paragraphs create the impression of a series of unconnected slogans, with no obvious progression."
