T-Post, February issue “De-evolition?” : Ah technology<, its advancements have improved our lives in so many ways. Thanks to technology we no longer need to use our precious brains for things like remembering phone numbers,  how to spell or read a map.

Author, Cory Doctorow, refers to our technological exploitation as using an “outboard memory”.

Maybe the Author and Journalist Bob Brooks was right in a recent article for the New York times when he said: “I had thought that the magic of the information age was that it allowed us to know more, but then I realized the magic of the information age is that it allows us to know less.” And what about in the long run? What kind of long-term effects are we going to experience as a result of our inability to do anything for ourselves?
