Google, the popular way of learning

Since the internet creation, many companies have taken the top rating by making our lives easier, such Wikipedia, independent blogs, or the excellence searching machine; Google.

Google is, in the most of the computers, the first website we see when we enter the internet, making the life much easier for being the faster searcher. This will be our very first option in the search of knowledge, leaving behind the harder ways, like search in books or official articles, even in newspapers.

When we have to study, we will curry to our searcher, this will disencourage the traditional ways of learning, such read books, university studies, newspapers, etc...

But in the other hand, I consider that is an extreme idea of people leaving behind the privilege of taking classes or even doing an own field work because of Google. It's even more likely that Google motivate people to do their own works and investigation and post ideas in the internet.

In summary, Google has both pros and cons, but is really affecting our learning?
