- The Illiterate Oral Society
-
The question about the impact of Google is a very good one. In oral societies, people have a much better memory than we tend to have. Yet our society seems to be coming more and more of an oral society itself - without the benefit of a good memory. One of my students once said,"I don't read I watch."
I too am addicted to Google. I love it. I know it gives me a lot of IQ point that I don't really have. But as we become more and more oral and more and more dependent on Google and other technology we may become a less literate society. - Posted by: bdrhoa Posted on: 08/01/08 You are currently: a Guest | Members login | Terms of Use
