Digital Nation Part 1

In this video we get a feel of how multi-tasking while using technology distracts people and their way of thinking clearly and rationally. NASA does testing on people who think they are good at multi-tasking, but in all actuality they are not, according to the research. I think this is very interesting topic to discuss because I truly believe that using all this technology hurts our ways of thinking over the long run.
So what does digital media do to your brain? Doing something like reading on the internet over reading a book shows larger clusters in brain activity (according to UCLA MRI scans). When looking at these brain scans, smaller is better. I found this all quite interesting and hope they talk more about how technology like cellphones, computers and video games, are all rotting our brains. We are living in a world where we are all immersed in technology, and it's quite interesting how it will affect our brains through the use of all these technologies.
