“Internet’s memory effects quantified in computer study”
Psychology experiments showed that people presented with difficult questions began to think of computers.
When participants knew that facts would be available on a computer later, they had poor recall of answers but enhanced recall of where they were stored.
S’quite nice. We mucked about with this in the office but manipulating sound, rather than a letter. It actually feels a bit weird looking at a screen showing you having some insane wireframe stuck to your face.
