1. The paper is arguing that people don't stop to think about the effect that changing methods of writing has on the world.
2. The underlying premise of this argument is that new technological advances have not changed writing but instead have brought it to life. The medium can have an immense impact on writing and new technology is the ultimate key to the future of writing.
3. Three rhetorical moves:
i. Quoting Bolter
ii. Argumentation; challenges society to think about the effect that new technology has.
iii. Figurative Language when comparing hypertext to an onion
These are successful because it challenges the reader to think about the technologies that are so common in their everyday lives and question how they effect society.
I recommend that you try using more descriptive language because there are a few generalizations.
