Changing the way we think

This article considers the effects, to the brain, of receiving information off of a computer screen. Nick Carr, a US-Based Atlantic magazine reporter, says "over the past few years I've had an uncomfortable sense that someone, or something, has been tinkering with my brain, remapping the neural circuitry, reprogramming the memory. My mind isn't going - so far as I can tell - but it's changing. I'm not thinking the way I used to think". Maybe google is changing the way we think.
