Article of the Week

Is Google Making Us Stupid?!?

This blog post is in fact part of the problem that this article brings up. I've found that my ability and enthusiasm to read has been brought down to a creeping halt since spending more time at the computer over the years. I've actually downloaded eBooks and have never read them because my attention span is too short when I am on the computer. I still don't watch TV anywhere near what I used to, but I've filled that void by wasting time on the computer instead.

Back in the military I was moved into an engineering position where I sat in my chair and had to stare at a computer screen for hours on end. That helped to curb my computer time at home and I was able to read more. But still, there has to be a happy medium between lazy computer time and being productive.
