"Search engines make us dumb"
Quite a strong headline. Here's the lead of this tech magazine column, "They [search engines] may add huge value in facilitating rapid and effective retrieval of known information, but to put our faith in search engines ultimately disempowers us."[ResourceShelf]

Wish I had a forum to discuss this sort of thing. Maybe that's why I do this blog.
