Is Google Making Us Stupid?

Questions

1. In the younger generation, are we seeing this lost of the ability to concentrate, interpret and express due to Google being fast and easy to access?

2. what is the main reason why the internet has an affect on the human mind?

3.In what cases does Google harm us in a way of how we think rather than how outside influences affect us?

        Being that I've grown up with the internet and Google I find that information is assessed rather easily. I can find whatever I’m interested in at the current moment. As of today mostly the younger generation is in tuned to Google and how the internet operates. As I've read Nicholas Carr's article I found out he left out a key type of people that use Google, which are the young. If Google is really making us stupid are we seeing it within the young?

        I myself like to think I’m young  and frankly don't know what Mr. Carr is talking about. He states that his concentration impaired and he's unable to read a book or article without drifting off and that it is all due to him using Google. That really interests me because if been using the internet practically all my life and I have not suffered from any of these conditions, I am able to read books without and breaks in concentration and  I 'm able to read lengthy articles without losing  focus. He does makes some valid points about how people usually skim through instead of read it all, in which instance I say depend on two things, time and interest.

I'll skim through parts I find boring or that don't interest me or just scan through for an important passage in the sake of saving time, but by all means its not dud to losing myself in a daydream or no being able to  focus.  What Carr states could be true for some people such as people making a transition to Google from their paperback books but as for people that basically grew up with the world wide web I see no evidence of Google making them stupid.
