Is google making us lazy?

Re: Is google making us lazy?

LP and farrah, I'm not talking about physically going to the library - even as an academic, I only go to the library only when I really really need to, may be two times a year or so. What I'm saying is that many students these days don't even bother with online databases that are accessible through their library website to them even at thier homes, and they just use Google and Wikipedia as the main source of information. In the process, they miss out on important seminal information that isn't indexed by Google or hasn't been read by the person who edited the Wikipedia information page.
