I realized this was a problem when I read the article "Google is making us stupid" where they said that our brain is working in a different way (Carr Pg 2) and bla bla bla, but I stopped and I thought what is the real problem ? So it hit me, I am missing everything so I went on my memories and though and I realize that there wasn't a time were technology wasn't present and I am not talking about cameras, I am talking about new media such us Facebook, Instagram,snapchat,we heart it and so many others, on each one of my memories one new media app was present so that little moments where technology was present stopped being memories and started to by my history on snap chat or my post on my wall on Facebook and as time went by those pictures that were suppose to be memories weren't memories anymore. Snapchat has 300 million monthly active users, Facebook has 1350 million active users, Twitter has 560 million active users and the list goes on and we can realize how many people are making fake memories just because they want to be more popular or have more followers or likes on their walls while their lives goes and pass right through their faces and we are missing everything.
