All jokes aside, if you’re interested in how our media environment has really changed how we think over the last 20 to 30 years, you should really check out Steven Johnson’s book “Everything Bad is Good For You”. (http://www.amazon.com/Everything-Bad-Good-You-Actually/dp/1573223077) I just read it and it blew my mind.
Ok, so there is more activity in some areas of the brain for “net savvy” individuals while on the internet (“on google”)… is that necessarily better than the other / fewer areas lighting up while reading ? We don’t even know what areas these are (and therefore what that means).
Swissmiss is an online garden Tina Roth Eisenberg started in 2005 and has lovingly tended to ever since.
