Tools that change the way we think

The internet has stimulated what I like to call a flash memory scenario, where you remember interesting tidbits for vast amounts of time, while the bulk of what you need to know is lost outside the relativity safe matrix that is your brain. For me at least, it encourages the participation of other activities, like looking up cat videos, while you should be dong work. When you are focused on multitasking you put hardly any effort into the work at hand and therefore the time you spent working looses the name of action and in this, regard their currents are cast awry. It is by far the most efficient and cheapest way to learn, but for me at least, the limiting factor of what you can accomplish is the will to work as well as your attention span. Not to mention the amount of bandwidth available for you to abuse. I find it extremely detrimental having the tools for procrastination so close when i need to be diligently working.
