Internet 2020 Survey Does Google make us stupid? 23-02-2010 - PEW Research http://tiny.cc/6E3IT
FutureCheck - Internet 2020 Survey Does Google make us stupid? Fourth "Future of the Internet" survey, conducted by the Pew Internet & American Life Project. Amongst the expert contributions a quote from Marcel Bullinga, Dutch Futurist at futurecheck.com: "Google will make us stupid and intelligent at the same time. In the future, we will live in a transparent 3D mobile media cloud that surrounds us everywhere. In this cloud, we will use intelligent machines, to whom we delegate both simple and complex tasks. Therefore, we will lose the skills we needed in the old days (e.g., reading paper maps while driving a car). But we will gain the skill to make better choices (e.g., knowing to choose the mortgage that is best for you instead of best for the bank). All in all, I think the gains outweigh the losses."
