Complex claims

"The human mind has been shaped in profound ways by the invention of the alphabet, the map, the book, and many othe media technologies and we did not get to control the shaping process. We control some aspects of our technologies, but our technologies control some aspects of us".

A quote by Nicolas Carr on the internet remapping our brain. He supports this by the way the brain learns to deal with different situations. In other words repitation remaps the brain to accomplish that task easier every time you do it.
