I'm losing my mind...?

I can totally see how researchers are finding ways the internet is enabling. Instead of spending time in a library researching a topic, one can go to google, type in a few words, and there are hundreds of topics related to these specific words. The internet can definitely be looked at as a lazy mechanism for people to find information fast, but isn't that the benefits of technology? The more educated and technological the world becomes, the less we have to work and the more we depend on machines to do the work for us. However, using the internet can also stimulate parts in the brain that wouldn't have stimulated otherwise. I guess what I'm trying to say is, you have to take the good with the bad and personally, I'm not going to stop using google or any other internet site. Well other than pornographic sites that is ;)
