Study says The Matrix (well, the Internet) is NOT making us stupid

If you're stupider in the year 2020, don't blame the Internet!

At least that's the opinion of the 895 technology gurus surveyed by the Pew Internet & American Life Project and Elon University's Imagining the Internet Center.

The impetus for the study was a story in The Atlantic magazine published in 2008 titled "Is Google Making Us Stupid?" by Nicholas Carr, which claimed that over-reliance on the search engine could dumb us all down.
