Is Google making us stupid? sometimes

In discussion of most people are power browsing, one controversial issue has been people don’t get good information from power browsing. On one hand Nicholas Carr states in his article Is Google Making Us Stupid?. “The web has been a godsend to me as a writer. Research that once required days in the stacks or periodical rooms of libraries can now be done in minutes.” This arguing that when needed internets the best way to finding quick information. On the other hand Carr reflects work from Maryanne Wolf “Wolf worries that the style of reading promoted by the Net, a style that puts efficiency and immediacy above all else” contends getting a number or one word is all we get out of power browsing. Others maintain that Google has created the ultimate search engine or library in a since. My own view is that we do not find the best information from the internet in causes of power browsing. Though I concede that Google has made it easy for us to find data, I still maintain that we are unable to get knowledge from the internet, only from books. For example Nathan Shedroff says in An Overview of Understanding “ One of the best ways of communicating knowledge is through stories.” Although some might object that you are able to find stories and books online, I reply that your most unlikely to read or finish reading them online when there are quicker and easier ways to finding the answer you are looking for thru power browsing. This issue is important because without finding knowledge you are unable to obtain wisdom and wisdom, Nathan Shedroff says, “offers the greatest reward”.
