This is the title of the last book of the writer Nicholas Carr published by TAURUS.
"Twitter misses you. Are not you curious about the many things you're missing? Come back! "
The ubiquity of the Internet in the lives of one third of men humans is noted in our ability to concentrate, since the ease of the Internet to distract us is enormous. Carr asks whether the Internet multitasking (read a email, Twitter messages, to see what it says Somebody's niece on Facebook and Google search in a cheap ticket to Prague will I open the ports on the router? Ah, yes that I was not sure to answer the email ...) is not impossible that we can reflect in a linear manner and deep.
But it also may be at stake the freedom of the individual: perhaps we're becoming a more uninformed even with the most information capacity available in the history of mankind. Is it worth it, because the digital leap? In any case is an irreversible process socially and that only the specific individual can escape being aware of the enormous power of seduction of this new Big Brother. McLuhan seems to have more reason than ever: the middle and nothing else.
PD. Nietzsche typed A Spoke Zarathustra himself in one of the first typewriters, and acknowledged that his style had changed. More information REBELLION.
