Is google making us stupid?
Will civilization collapse under the welter of "what type of potato are you?" quizzes on Facebook?
Will Twitter turn you into a self-obsessed bore?
Maybe...

Interestingly, that article was the inspiration behind a book I've been writing.... at a glacially slow pace... and might finish..... eventually. Must ask google why.

Re: If google is making us stupid, what about Rationalia?
Trouble is that anybody can post anything on the net and many of the articles are poorly written with SMS abbreviations and lolcat-speak spelling errors. I give up before the end of the second paragraph.
Just recently though, I bought a well-written book (God: The Failed Hypothesis by Victor Stenger) and read the 300 pages in three sittings.

I have Stenger's and I must finish it sometime. Too many things to do.
