Article Response #1: Is google making us stupid?

Reading about this article really just put me to sleep. I kept finding myself off topic in my mind and having to reread the section due to boredom. The article had some key points in it like when it talks about the patholigists from University of Michigan Medical School and how he states that “I’ve lost the ability to do that. Even a blog post of more than three or four paragraphs is too much to absorb. I skim it.” I found this one of the most interesting parts of the article because I can really connect to this, just reading this article alone I found myself bored and off topic just within the first three or four paragraphs. Also from the article a study at George Mason Univerisity states that "Even the adult mind is very plastic, it  has the ability ro reprogram itself on the fly, altering the way it functions." This is very true in my opinion, the human brain is becoming more and more like a computerized machine and in the future I predict seeing more and more ways to make things easier, for example "Siri."










Mindblown.
