Google vs Intelligence

A student was suppose to read a book for 3 weeks now and a summary is due today. The student hasnt even read a page. What does he/she do? They google summaries for that book and it'll make a paper right then and there. Instead of it taking 3 weeks to get all the information to summarize a book, it takes 3.5 seconds to get all the answers. Nicholas Carr's wrote, "Is Google Making us Stupid", said he doesnt even have to read books to get information. Just google and all the answers come up. It's making our brains slack off. When a book would actually be in front of us and we HAD to read it, our brains wouldnt know how to take it in.
