"Tools That Change the Way We Think"

How does extensive Internet/media/technology use change the way you think?

What I find myself doing whenever I search something on the internet is getting the answer off of a website and then forgetting that information then next day. Now that I think about how technology influences the way I learn, it's kind of scary. I've wired my memory to think instantly, not long term, if that makes sense. I get the information and then forget it. Why? I think it's because I've become so dependent on the inter-webs to tell me about things and then knowing that they will be there tomorrow, I don't care enough to remember them.
