Is memorization dead ?

Technology has eroded the need to memorization.

  1. Calculators have eroded the need to memorize the number tables.
  2. Cell phone has eroded the need to memorize the phone number.
  3. GPS has eroded the need to memorize the addresses and routes.

What is next a name tag on everybody’s chest to tell them and others who they are ?
