Carr thinks that excessive use of the internet might cause permanent changes to the way our brains work and we don’t have to remember as much, because we have RAM (Random Access Memory). Carr suggests that due to all the choices and distractions the internet provides its user whilst searching for information, it ‘turns us back to our native state of distractedness’ (Carr 373). Carr feels like due to the constant quick thinking skills that the internet demands us to have; we are losing our higher order cognitive abilities gained from focus reading such as from a book. Our ability to think in a creative and reflective way is diminishing. Carr feels the automatic way of thinking means we are ‘losing our mental discipline’ (Carr 375).
In other words, as we get older, we have a harder time with distractions online with the Internet, Facebook, and such. Finally, some people say that using Google will make a person stupid, which is true for some, but others like me, actually use it for research and to learn as well. Experienced Internet users actually showed increased brain activity, with more advanced decision-making skills and complex reasoning. In simple terms, the inexperienced Internet users lagged behind. This is either a win or lose for using Google, it help some, but also fails others.
As much as we wish we were, people are not perfect and can easily overlook an important step in a process and accidentally delete data or enter the wrong data. Making sure I have efficient processes in place and good quality assurance programs are both great ideas, but having an online backup solution for the café can be as equally
“likes” measures the about of new likers of a brand. b.

I believe that the status of the countries that are developing in fast ways, if they are not careful will over load their capabilities and it could shut down. When thing are expanding in such a fast way I feel like most of the time they are missing steps and or shortcutting projects causing a system over load. If there is a major shut down business will not be able to function. We rely on the internet to run a business, and computers to keep the systems in place. If they are interrupted they could cause major problem for the business.
They can choose to engage in deep thinking activities. Too much of anything is not good for any one, and this also applies to internet usage. Scholars say that the price of technology is alienation and that this indicates that the more distracted an individual becomes, the less able they are to experience human emotions such as empathy and compassion. It is still too early to tell what the results of the future effects of the internet, but as Carr states, “An intellectual technology exerts its influence by shifting the emphasis of our thought. As the brain adapts to the new medium, the most profound changes will take place over several generations’

Server can be configured, for example if you are in an organization and you know that certain website your employers wouldn’t need access or you want to block all the dodge websites, you can do that by configuring the server. If you but new computers you can easily add the new computer onto the system with no problem so it is very flexible. Disadvantage of client/server When there is a problem with the server, or it even shuts down the whole system will get affected. It might be a bit pricy to set up client/server It might also be costly to maintain all the client on the client/server, lots of skills needed to maintain the server in a proper way. [pic] This is an example of a client/server, as you can see the big computer is the server and all the other computer/devices are connected to the server.
Technology has had several downfalls as well. Addressing issues quickly as possible so they do not become a bigger issue is very important. When the company is an e-business it can be different
They may become so used to communicating via internet that they lose basic communication skills and can’t hold a face to face conversation. Prior to social media, people were able to have secret affairs. But now, it has become so much easier to trace foot prints that are left behind, which in turn makes it easier for couples to spy on each other.
