What Is Google Doing to Us

...

Today kids such as children, teenagers, and young adult have accepted technology evolution. The internet is like a cheat sheet today, it doesn’t give much thrill to want to learn. So much about a topic. Today, typing a question into google and getting a simple answer is enough to get by. This makes people lazy because we don’t feel the need to make so much effort.

In the article, I believe Carr is trying to explain that although technology system is helpful in ways but it shouldn’t be something that needs to be depended on or considered to be “universal” where it becomes our only source of everything. Technology give us a lot of different sources today, such as the camera, music, television, video games, maps, GPS system, books, clocks, telephones video calls across the country, radios, credit cards swipes, and much more. Technology has also affected our way of communicating, everyone now sends text messaging and emails to get in contact or send information to others. Google is a magnetic brain capture, because when using Google we don’t have to rely on our memory as much as when reading.

Overall, as time continues to pass, we are all leading towards more advancements to improve anything and everything with life. Every new advancement given to us can either slow us down or speed us up. Indeed it will take some time for people who is accustomed to old ways to adjust to the new era but it is a part of learning. Even though the new evolution will bring new outlooks to technology it doesn’t mean we should let the old ways go send not acknowledge it any longer. Whether there is pros and cons with the new changes, it wouldn’t stop evolution from forming and happening. This is part of time, and nature of it all is that we can use anything we want and need to our advantage because we will always learn something from it.
