Is Google Making Us Stupid? - The Atlantic (July/August 2008) - 0 views

  • It is clear that users are not reading online in the traditional sense; indeed there are signs that new forms of “reading” are emerging as users “power browse” horizontally through titles, contents pages and abstracts going for quick wins. It almost seems that they go online to avoid reading in the traditional sense.

      I have a stack of books I should be reading right now, but I am cruizing the internet instead.
  • Wolf worries that the style of reading promoted by the Net, a style that puts “efficiency” and “immediacy” above all else, may be weakening our capacity for the kind of deep reading that emerged when an earlier technology, the printing press, made long and complex works of prose commonplace. When we read online, she says, we tend to become “mere decoders of information.” Our ability to interpret text, to make the rich mental connections that form when we read deeply and without distraction, remains largely disengaged.
  • As the media theorist Marshall McLuhan pointed out in the 1960s, media are not just passive channels of information. They supply the stuff of thought, but they also shape the process of thought. And what the Net seems to be doing is chipping away my capacity for concentration and contemplation.

      Maybe we are learning a new mental skill and as a choice are letting go of a skill that we no longer find useful?

  • The more they use the Web, the more they have to fight to stay focused on long pieces of writing.
  • He speculates on the answer: “What if I do all my reading on the web not so much because the way I read has changed, i.e. I’m just seeking convenience, but because the way I THINK has changed?”

      I'm not sure that this is necessarily a 'bad thing'?

  • “We are how we read.
  • mere decoders of information
  • Reading, explains Wolf, is not an instinctive skill for human beings.
  • our writing equipment takes part in the forming of our thoughts.
  • The last thing these companies want is to encourage leisurely reading or slow, concentrated thought. It’s in their economic interest to drive us to distraction.
    • Bruce Vigneault
       
      It is scary to beleive that this organic change to our brain is being driven by commercialism!
  • In Plato’s Phaedrus, Socrates bemoaned the development of writing. He feared that, as people came to rely on the written word as a substitute for the knowledge they used to carry inside their heads, they would, in the words of one of the dialogue’s characters, “cease to exercise their memory and become forgetful.” And because they would be able to “receive a quantity of information without proper instruction,” they would “be thought very knowledgeable when they are for the most part quite ignorant.” They would be “filled with the conceit of wisdom instead of real wisdom.”
    • Bruce Vigneault
       
      Ahhh... so with each new step in technology this same 'scare' is felt by the elite ;)
  • The Italian humanist Hieronimo Squarciafico worried that the easy availability of books would lead to intellectual laziness, making men “less studious” and weakening their minds.
  • I come from a tradition of Western culture, in which the ideal (my ideal) was the complex, dense and “cathedral-like” structure of the highly educated and articulate personality—a man or woman who carried inside themselves a personally constructed and unique version of the entire heritage of the West. [But now] I see within us all (myself included) the replacement of complex inner density with a new kind of self—evolving under the pressure of information overload and the technology of the “instantly available.

    In today's digital age, having a reliable email account is essential. With the rise of online services and social media, Gmail has become a go-to choice for many users. Yet, not everyone starts fresh with a brand-new account. Some people are on the hunt for old Gmail accounts that come with established reputations and histories. But why would anyone want to buy an old Gmail account? The reasons can vary from wanting instant credibility in business outreach to accessing older platforms or subscriptions tied to previous emails. However, this practice comes with its own set of advantages and pitfalls that every potential buyer should consider carefully. If you're curious about where to find these accounts and what you need to know before making a purchase, you've landed in the right spot. Let's dive into everything you need to understand about buying old Gmail accounts! The Importance of Gmail Accounts Gmail accounts play a crucial role in our online lives. They serve as gateways to countless services, from social media platforms to cloud storage solutions. With over 1.5 billion users worldwide, Gmail is not just an email service; it's a digital hub. Having a Gmail account enhances communication efficiency. Its seamless integration with Google Workspace tools like Docs and Drive allows for quick collaboration and file sharing. This interconnectedness simplifies both personal and professional interactions. Moreover, many websites require an email address for registration or access to exclusive content. A reliable Gmail account ensures you can easily sign up for newsletters, participate in forums, or even manage subscriptions without hassle. Security features are another highlight of Gmail accounts. With two-factor authentication options and advanced spam filters, they offer robust protection against unwanted threats while keeping your communications safe and secure.

    Introduction to Gmail Accounts In today's fast-paced digital landscape, having a reliable email account is non-negotiable. Gmail stands out as one of the most popular platforms for both personal and professional communication. But what if you need an edge? Old Gmail accounts can hold untapped potential in various scenarios-from marketing strategies to securing online registrations. As businesses and individuals navigate this complex online world, the demand for established accounts has surged. Why? Because older accounts come with history, credibility, and sometimes even a treasure trove of contacts or resources. Whether you're looking to boost your outreach or enhance your online presence, understanding where to find these old gems can be invaluable. Let's delve into why there's a growing interest in acquiring old Gmail accounts and how they might just give you that much-needed advantage in your digital endeavors. The Need for Old Gmail Accounts in the Digital Age In today's fast-paced digital landscape, old Gmail accounts serve a unique purpose. Many online platforms favor established accounts that carry historical data and credibility. A vintage account can enhance your online presence significantly. For businesses, having an older Gmail account can inspire trust among customers. An email address with years of activity suggests reliability and stability. This can be vital for forging relationships in e-commerce or service-driven industries. Moreover, seasoned accounts often have fewer spam filters because they've built a rapport with various services over time. This means better deliverability rates for marketing campaigns or important communications. Personal users also benefit from the nostalgia tied to their first email addresses. Old Gmail accounts hold memories and connections that newer ones simply cannot replicate. They represent our digital history, making them valuable assets in both personal and professional realms.

7.7 Best Sites to Buy Google Reviews (5 Star & Positive) - 0 views

    If it has no author name, then it's likely fake. The only way to know whether this person wrote your business review is by looking at their profile and seeing if they have any other reviews on Google or any other sites like Yelp. If they do have other reviews, look at them to see if the content matches up with what you see in the new one you just received from them (not all people will write about themselves). If so, then there's no doubt that this is an authentic review!
