TMI?

Loved author Nicholas Carr's article on the implications of technology to influence not only what we think, but how we think. http://www.theatlantic.com/doc/200807/google

Great article! I find myself skimming when I'm on the internet much more than I used too. And yes, I found myself scrolling to the bottom the article when I was half way through thinking "How long is this?" and "Well, I can't stop or I'll be proving his point!". However, I can still become immersed in a good book. Though I do have to put the ocmputer aside ;)

Yes, it's kind of scary that our neural connections can be rewired by that constant barrage of information...
