From my perspective, Nicholas Carr's argument that the Internet seems to diminish one's ability to concentrate and contemplate applies to the Internet natives of my generation. Generation Z, my generation, has countless numbers of Internet natives who are perfect examples of Carr's argument against the Internet. My generation, which will be world leaders, is losing mental capacity due to the frequent use of electronics but above all of the World Wide Web. About 20% of children aged eight to sixteen have a computer in their bedroom and the 54% have access to the Internet. Unfortunately, Carr's argument applies to web natives of my generation because they are absorbed in the web twenty-four hours and seven days a week, which leads many of them to be distracted while carrying out their tasks, unable to concentrate and reflect on many ideas, and their way of thinking is changed. For starters, a plethora of cyberspace natives of the net generation are easily distracted from their activities. Although the Internet seems harmless to us, it harms us mentally. As the article says "Is Google Making Us Stupid?" he exclaims, “The result is to disperse our attention and spread our concentration,” regarding the consequences of viewing a multitude of Internet advertisements in a matter of seconds. This article points out that countless web users have short attention spans, which results in countless people having trouble concentrating and completing their work quickly. One of the BBC News articles, “Turn into a Digital Goldfish,” states: “The addictive nature of web browsing can leave you with an attention span of nine seconds, the same as a goldfish. “ This… half of the document… has huge implications for Internet use, for example for teenagers receiving medical treatment for mental problems. One mental problem resulting from excessive time spent on the Internet is depression because they are isolated and have less communication with others when they are on the Internet. The World Wide Web is responsible for making Internet natives of my generation dumb. My generation's brain is being altered, we can't concentrate and we get easily distracted by the simplest advertisements in the world. If my generation's attention spans shorten, they become increasingly unable to concentrate, and our cognitive abilities change frequently, then the world will be in store for calamity. Thus, Nicholas Carr's argument that the Internet seems to diminish one's ability to concentrate and contemplate applies to the Internet natives of my generation..
