My Head is in the Cloud

A good essay concerning the growing reliance on technology to remember items we used to commit to memory. I will admit that the number of current phone numbers I can recall at this moment are about five, three of which are mine. I do comfort in the fact that all of my stored numbers are backed up in several locations, so the possibility of total loss is small, but what if I did not have any access to technology outside a traditional land line phone? With all of this instant access to information, is technology making us stupid?
