At 8 in the morning, a scrap of paper blew across an apocalyptic Times Square, and Costantino Gava, a tourist from Italy, stood amid an archipelago of abandoned red cafe tables. He looked about at the vast circus of neon lights winking allure at no one, and snapped another picture of the desolation. ''Buon Natale,'' he said with a shrug. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The common rap against technology is that it leads to an accumulation of devices. But the nature of technology is changing. Fewer products are doing more tasks -- all accomplished by countless lines of massless software code. And so we no longer need to accumulate products. If anything, we can cut down. The question is, Which can be replaced and which are fine, or even preferable, to keep? It is plain as day that paper maps and Rolodexes have given way to their digital counterparts. But what else can you get rid of? Here is a list of common consumer technologies and products and a somewhat opinionated judgment on whether to keep or pitch it. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]

MOVING makes you face all the stuff you've accumulated: books, computers, clothing and, of course, reams and reams of financial documents. Before deciding whether to haul all of them to a new home, as I did a few months ago, it is worth asking what really needs to be saved and what can safely be ditched. As far as financial records go, experts say that we can get by with a lot less paper than in the past because so many more documents, from fund prospectuses to monthly statements, are available online. Mutual fund companies store years and even decades worth of them that can be retrieved and stored, often at no cost. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

FOR anyone who still puts pen to paper and, as such, possibly mourned the closing of Mrs. John L. Strong, there is Connor, a luxury stationer that has just opened at the Plaza Hotel. ''Most stationery houses have gone down-market,'' said Justin Felber, who founded the company with his fellow Strong alumnus, Henri Richter-Werner. ''We wanted to go up.'' Which means: an archive of hundreds of vintage and antique monograms, as well as die cuts hand-engraved into steel by master craftsmen in Paris and updated each season like a fashion collection; cards made of 100 percent cotton, which won't bleed when written on with a fountain pen; envelopes lined by hand with tissue paper; and cashmere carrying pouches made by Loro Piana -- all of it encased in Italian silk linen boxes wrapped with two ribbons like an old steamer trunk. It comes with a price: cards range from $10 to $20 a piece, with a minimum of 100 to a box. ''We cater to people looking for something special,'' Mr. Richter-Werner said. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]

The admonition offered by legions of mothers -- ''Don't sit so close to the TV'' -- isn't really an option when it comes to electronic reading devices. You have to get close to the screen to use it. The act of reading is going through a number of radical transitions, but perhaps none is more fundamental than the shift from reading on paper to reading on screens. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]

Reaching into his back pocket after a game last week, the Marquette men's basketball coach, Brent Williams, who is known as Buzz, pulled out a thick sheaf of papers, impeccably folded and held together by two large black binder clips. Though Williams carries four bags stuffed with books, scouting materials and personal items wherever he goes, these papers stay on him when he coaches. Many of the sheets of paper contain statistics; Williams's obsession with numbers borders on fanatical. Some contain notes from recent conversations. One page contains a list of recruits, coaches and parents he is supposed to call. Another, the names of people he prays for. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]
