Is Google Making Us Stupid?



Eis o artigo de Nicholas Carr sobre as vantagens e os possíveis problemas que a utilização da Internet coloca e que tanta discussão tem provocado. Vale a pena lê-lo até ao fim. 


"(...) media are not just passive channels of information. They supply the stuff of thought, but they also shape the process of thought. And what the Net seems to be doing is chipping away my capacity for concentration and contemplation. My mind now expects to take in information the way the Net distributes it: in a swiftly moving stream of particles. Once I was a scuba diver in the sea of words. Now I zip along the surface like a guy on a Jet Ski."
