Why learn the names of flowers, plants, trees, birds, insects, or other aspects of nature? Just point your #smartphone at whatever you’re looking at, and in a snap it’ll tell you what it is. No nature guide (book or human) could possibly compete.

This is indeed a problem. People will no longer feel they need to know anything. Point and click. That's all you need in today's world. Kinda like Google telling you to take the next left - wherever that is.

No need to remember your friends' names, jobs, marital status, number of children or hobbies. Just point your phone at them and it'll tell you. Actually, no need to remember who your friends are.
