This article is really just about that finding out if google is making us stupid. The author feels that since he has been using google his thought process and concentration have been effected. He can no longer handle reading anything more than a couple paragraphs long. He also talks about how technology has changed our society throughout the years. He says the machine we use to write with can have an effect on our thought process and the way we write. He mentions when Friedrich Nietzsche bought a typewriter and a friend noticed a slight change in his style of writing. He believes that with new technology comes new ways of thinking and reading. He also did call the web a godsend. He can now look up information in minutes verses days of library research. He does express fears of us relying on technology too much and it taking over us. In conclusion he does see some good to it, but it doesn't out weigh how harmful it is to us.
