Critique of: Are Cookbooks Obsolete? By Julia Moskin

Julia Moskin's argument is sound despite her initial anecdote. She uses an anecdote that limits her audience to extremely enthusiastic cooks, who have their recipes planned out a month in advance for thanksgiving. This would be fine were it not for the rest of the blog post being directed toward a wider audience including new, and casual cooks, and tech enthusiasts. She effectively uses the opinion of professionals, however there really are no credentials for these cooks, so we may not know if they are professional cooks or her aunt and uncle. for the most part a sound argument.
