Is Google Making Us Stupid?
Not security related but a very interesting article Nicholas Carr in the July/August issue of the Atlantic Monthly. I have noticed over the past six or seven years my ability to finish a book (or even a chapter for that matter) without skimming has diminished somewhat. Try as I might to read an actual book I can't seem to get through the whole thing without skipping words, paragraphs, even a page or two...
At least that was my initial thought about the article.
I never did finish reading it. ;-)

"Twitter doesn't make people stupid.
Nor does Google or Wikipedia or anything else. People are just stupid irrespective of technology. Myself included. I don't do stupid things because of technology, I do stupid things because sometimes I do stupid things."
