So this article was very interesting or at least the first couple paragraphs :P
I really liked the way Vonnegut structured Cat's Cradle. I know it may show that I have a lack of focus, but the short chapters and quick transitions made it a lot easier to read. This also, for me, made the book easier to understand. I don't know if I agree with the whole Google making us stupid. I think that people in today's society have just adapted to life in the 21rst Century. If I really wanted to I could read a long book and even maybe understand it, I just don't want to because I don't have time. Maybe its not Google but that fact that an average person has a billion things to do a day and no time to think or read. Anyways, I don't even use the internet that often but I really do believe that the interenet and Google have done more help than harm. It has really opened up a lot a lot of doors and kind of bridged the gap between many cultures. I get the whole shortened attention span thing but oh well :)
