Why the Google generation isn’t as smart as it thinks... →
My mom sent me this story this morning. From the Times Online.
She is constantly puzzled on how I know a little about a lot of things and not so much about any one thing. It is true, I do confess. The good news is that we take in more data than any previous generation in history. The bad news is that if any of that data is longer than 2 pages or 60 seconds it gets lost, it has nowhere to land.
Read and decide for yourself.
