Tools that change the way we think

The extensive use of Internet/media/technology makes everyone a little bit lazier. People often take for granted the internet and other technologies used for finding out information. People do not put much thought into what they are trying to find out, they just think "i can just search it on the internet and it will not take more then 5 minutes." Although the internet is a very fast, easy and efficient source to get your information from it does not require much work. Back in the day when my mom was in high school she used what seem like ancient methods of finding information, like a dictionary or encyclopedia. Many kids in this day and age have yet to even pick up an encyclopedia let alone use it. I feel that with such an efficient way of getting information we often as human beings become very lazy and dependent on such a reliable source.
