Journal 9

I find it ironic that here I am reading an article about people who say that the internet has made it hard for them to read more then a few paragraphs, and here I am struggling to stay focused and read this entire article. I do believe this article has made a very valid point. The faster we can get answers online the less patient we will be to find answers the long and hard ways. Why read a book to find an answer when you can type in a few words on google and get an answer in seconds. I do believe this is affecting the way we communicate. Google and cell phones are destroying this generations communication skills, or are they just changing them? Although I would rather be able to communicate well face to face then through cell phones or computers. I do not believe they have effected our generation as much as they will the next generation. Talking to people is very important, reading books is very important, and staring at a computer screen hurts my head. So therefore I do believe that google has made us stupid and it will continue to get worse in the future.
