Nicholas Carr has basically put on paper everything that happens when we are reading a page or even trying to read a book. From the moment I open this book I though to my self there is no way I am going to read this, my professor must be out her mind. The whole thing about no phones and laptops drove me nuts. When I started reading I began to understand the whole point of this class and reading this book. In the beginning of this book he speaks about how the Internet is affecting our lives and technology is distressing our minds, the way we think.
During chapter four, Carr describes the techniques that people used during the old times. For example they wrote on clay that were harden.This took quite a while but now a couple of pages are written and made into a book, which many don’t even read like myself for example. Everything now is taken for granted, most of us cant even spend five seconds without looking out our phones to see if any one texted us our someone posted something on our Facebook. I get amazed more and more by reading this book. Our brains act in such a way that is the way society puts us in.
