See blog "Are we Google dependant?"
I could not agree with you more Elyse… I use Google for everything, to tell you the truth I feel that I have am learning more off the internet than my entire 2 years of university. Information is becoming so accessible that it is scary. I don’t know how people can be computer illiterate because Google has made it so easy; all you have to do is type in your question and Google does it all. I wonder what would happen if Google was targeted by terrorists?
Another trend I have also noticed is the uptake of ‘Googling’ in the corporate sector. I work as a marketing and sales manager for an IT company and we are dependent on Google and the Internet. I find it funny that universities and academics try to force their students to have book references rather than internet ones. There is information on the internet that you would not have access to otherwise.
“The Google Era”, has definitely begun but I feel that it is only the tip of the iceberg I have a feeling we will be relying on Google a lot more in the future. Lucky it is free otherwise we’d all be broke.
