Nicholas Carr in The Atlantic reckons our endless surfing of the internet is making it harder for us to concentrate on one thing for any length of time. I know cos I’ve read bits about it on two other blogs. I still haven’t read all of Carr’s original piece yet, but it sounds interesting – I must get around to reading it.

(and the blog where I first read about it is by Marina Mahathir, who is an excellently opinionated daughter of former Malaysian PM, Dr Mahathir Mohamad (also very opinionated, although not always so excellently). Her blog is really interesting – definitely worth having a quick scan)
