Evolving Our Thinking

There has been much discussion recently concerning how computers, the internet, especially google have changed the way we think. Prior generations touted knowledge as key. The more you knew you the more “intelligent” and valuable you were. Now, we are arguably getting to the point where people can find out “facts” quite easily through search – and it could be argued there is less of a need to “know” things. More important is being about to use this information properly and creatively toward solutions.

Found a funny cartoon that depicted this change of thinking through technologies, with a twist that encouraged me to link to it.
