Many people these
days are getting stupider and stupider every day. Why is this people wonder? Nicolas Carr was
wondering the same thing, so what Nicolas did is he did research and made this
article "Is Google Making Us Stupid?”. What Nicolas
thinks is that Google is making us as humans stupid. He explains this by
saying, with all of the articles on Google who really needs to read whole books
and stories when anybody can just hope onto Google and read a couple paragraphs
so see what the whole story is about. What this is doing is making people’s attention
span get shorter and shorter till eventually you will be learning nothing at
all. Although it is not just Google’s fault, people choose to go to Google and
take a short cut out. So really, Google is not to blame; it’s the people that
use Google.
Through reading this and comparing
me with what Nicolas Carr had said in his Article I have noticed that it is
true. Although Google is the main source
for information, it is not Google’s fault. Google was made to support websites
and be able to get to them faster. Google does not decide what people put onto
the web page. All Google doest is displays it so it is easy to find. So it is
not fair to blame Google. Now the article on the other hand that is what is
really the problem. I think that the articles ON Google are making us stupid. The
articles are getting shorter and shorter and that makes us read less and less
which means our brains will be absorbing less and less information. So do you
think it is really Google’s fault?
