"As Carr first observed in his much discussed 2008 article in The Atlantic, “Is
Google Making Us
Stupid?,”<http://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2008/07/is-google-making-us-stupid/6868/>the
mere existence of the online world has made it much harder (at least
for
him) to engage with difficult texts and complex ideas. “Once I was a scuba
diver in a sea of words,” Carr writes, with typical eloquence. “Now I zip
along the surface like a guy on a Jet Ski.” "
