My own experiences how I have been using the internet the last year, something happened to my own thinking. For about 10 years we see a big change, great benefits but we are also loosing our ability to concentrate. We are loosing to read books, jumping from page to page, clicking. In our day to day lifes we have to take a look at neuroscience. The impact of the internet is about the time we spend at the internet. Our brains are constantly adapting and we can train our brain to take little bits of information, experiencing this online. Multitasking, but we are not exercising deep concentration, like reflection and deep contemplation. What we don,t use is what we are loosing. The ability to pay deep attention about a longer period of time, having a long conversation without checking your phone all the time. The process of paying deep attention, activates deep processes, our long term memory, critical thinking. We are seeing this now in the gadgets now..the shallows, we need the new deep dialogues.
