Remember when you were young and you had to memorize important numbers (Home, Phone, Grandmas house, Best friends numbers, etc.) Now how many phone numbers do you know now? Since they are programed in our phones we don’t have to think about it anymore. Imagine completely not retaining information and using the Internet as an external hard drive. In 2020 this is what the world will most likely be like. We as a society will be “wired” differently. People will be able to search better than ever. Being able to find information and knowing information off the top of your head are two totally different things.
I am not a huge fan of being “wired”. I love technology but I believe it should be used as a tool, not as your main form of knowledge. I personally still memorize numbers just in case anything happens where I can’t get in contact with anybody. On a small scale you see this happen on New Years Eve. Everyone tries to call at one time and often times you cannot get through because all circuits are busy. If anything catastrophic were to happen I believe that you will need the skills to survive without technology. We need to be able to conquer all limits no matter the circumstance.
