Google Now tells me who I was, making me dumber with Sameness
When i glance at what Google is feeding me day-after-day, my first reaction is to be thrilled at how cool it’s that there is an engine in the market that sees what i love and provides it to me. Automatic understanding, seeing what I seek and where i’m, telling me things I aught to grasp. Things folks know.
It is less complicated to search out something I’ve already worked with in Google than it’s to locate something I’ve never seen before. While data stacks up, webpages are made and emails are sent, the dominant method for organization is a search in response to sameness. Because I’ve visited SlashGear.com so very normally until now, whenever I’m logged in to Google, SlashGear-related search results appear first for essentially anything technology or science related.
