Blog post 11

Throughout the novel The Shallow,s I have agreed and disagreed with multiple statements Carr has made. In the beginning of his novel he makes multiple arguments about how our generation is so focused on receiving information as quickly as possible. He explains we often have a hard time diving deeply into a complex novel and truly understanding the information. This almost creates a diverted type of attention, which causes issues when trying to truly focusing on one task. These types of statements made by Carr I completely agree with. I think this really adds to his overall argument. However, I think a lot of his arguments are very repetitive and not modern. I believe he should have added more about technology's influence on aspects of social interaction. I think this would have made his arguments more interesting and reliable.
