Google

I found this to be a very interesting article. I would have to disagree with some of the things that Carr had to say though. He was saying that he is not able to concentrate anymore because of the Internet. I kind of find that hard to believe. I have trouble on concentrating what I am reading pretty much all the time. The only time I am able to really concentrate is when I am super interested in the thing that I am reading. If I don’t really care about it or find it interesting to me at all, the chances are im going not going to want to read it at all, or just zone off while I was trying to read whatever it was. So I do not think I would blame that on the internet or google. I really do not think that has anything to do with it. I think it all has to deal with something that interests you. I feel like if you have anything that you find very interesting you are going to be able to read it very easily and not get distracted by anything or anyone. So I do not think that google is making us stupid at all. I think it is just an easier way for us to find any kind of information that we want to find quickly and very easy. Google just makes everything that we need to find short and sweet and to the point and its quick and easy and that’s why we find it so useful and turn to it everyday.
