I think there is much good in the internet. I mean where would we be wiht out it. I certiantly wouldnt b typing this right now. It has truly changed the human race.
That one was tristan hill the one that said how it helped us and human kind. 6th pr.
I think the internet messes with your brain. Being online makes you tired. It is bad for the brain to focus after being online. Being on line keeps people from rest. We all need rest. Maybe we should read instead of going online.
I think that people should read a book instead of going online. It is not good for the brain to stay up late on the internet. Rest is critical for a developing brain. So, that means that many are not getting what they need for their brains.

The author's concern is about how society is becoming so reliant on eletronics that soon enough we won't be able to function without them and that the internet will affect our ability to focus. My take on the subject is that we will do with the computer what we will. If we let it, the bad or the good will influence us. Its about the choices we make.

hello smaxwell! this is logan mock.. i think computers mess with our brains..as far as what the article said it does.i do believe that it messes up your attention spand by watchin tv,texting,or being on the thing im on now..computer..anyways COMPUTER is baD!
I think the internet is a VERY useful tool for infomation, but the more time you spend on it the more you become all weird and sleepy. The internet is very good just not if it interfers with your life. And all the bad and NON-APPROPRIATE websites need to be band. So there are good reasons and bad reasons for using the internet.
i think the internet is a useful tool. it gives us many facts. i also think there is a bad side to the internet as well. there are tons of things on the internet that we have access to that we probably should not!!!!!!! So i think the internet does warp our minds!!

i think that the internet is good for us because it provides information quickly and it is up to you to determine whether its true or not

I think it is false! It is not true!
no i do not think so. he did, trying to make us or me think so
I think the computer is bad sometimes, and good sometimes. It does provide with information, but if over used, it takes all of our focus, and sometimes can provide false info. It's all about the intake of the internet. Too much is bad.

the author thinks that computers are destroying fascinating pleasing and ultimately changing our mind that does kinda sound freaky but am i gonna stop using the computer cause some activist thinks its bad heck no my minds already warped Graham Humphries
the author fears that the technologies are infatilising the brain into state of small children with small attention space that lives for the moment. i think that you learn from social networking, new technology skills, creativity, and its fun. The bad thing is you dont learn how to make relationships with people.

Yes, and no. The internet can be very useful for school work, and studies, also for factual help for a report, project, etc. The only problem with this is many people today are using the internet for the wrong reasons. Like vulgar pictures, videos, and chatting. And in that point of view it is warping many children and adults mind today.
the internet is good as a working tool but not what most people use it for
