What is the point in spending time and effort learning things when you can just look them up on the internet? Even doctors these days now find themselves using Google when they want to try to decide what is wrong with a patient. Was it really necessary for them to have spent years studying science and medicine, when the information can now be found online in an instant? As technology progresses, and as more and more people have access to the internet, it surely becomes more and more of a waste of time gaining knowledge. Memorising facts should become a thing of the past.
