I Google, Therefore I Am Losing the Ability to Think
[/DASH]This Article, on Buzzle.com, says that powerful search engines are taking away our will to search through books and enhance our memories. The simple type in and click away to get information is weakening our ability to think, to remember, to analyze.
"...chipping away my capacity for concentration & contemplation..."
"Now my concentration often starts to drift after two or three pages. I get fidgety, lose the thread, begin looking for something else to do. I feel as if I'm always dragging my wayward brain back to the text. The deep reading that used to come naturally has become a struggle.'"
What do you think ? Considering the amount of time you spend on Google and how much you learn from it, do you agree or disagree ?
What kind of effect does Google have on your life ?
