Changing the Way We Think

According to the article researchers feel that search engines such as google and other technology such as cell phones are causing people to think differently. I think search engines cause children, students, and adults to find answers based on the way they already feel. Since search engines can find very specific information it makes it harder to understand other people's viewpoints because its easy to find articles that agree with you. People become more closed minded because they are not forced to read and think about the way others feel about certain issues. Sometimes people become too dependant on search engines and sometimes the websites provided are not as credible as it may seem. Since information is not accurate people are mislead.

Cell phones have become a commodity for most people. Cell phones allow people to work away form their desk and be more efficient for their clients. It is easy to communicate with people when you are in an area where you can not talk on the phone.
