Google or no Google?

Carr starts off by stating the meaning of the article very clear, that the way we think now a days is changing because as stated by him, "I used to be able to pick up an article or book and read it with ease," with that statement it seems that people today can't sit down for long and read a book without being distracted by something else. Carr goes on to speak about the ease of finding information on the internet. I agree that yes information is in fact hard to find but also it does depend on the reader and how they perceive the information. One of his examples where he said in the British library they have online computers to look up stored databases of articles and books. The concern with that was that everyone who looked up information would only skim read and not complete the article, and that if they couldn't find anything that they liked they would just skip it and move on to the next article. All in all yes Google has made people lazy in finding and interpreting information but when it comes down to it, it depends on the focus of the person as a reader.
