Claim #1-"In Google's view, information is a kind of commodity, a utilitarian resouce that can be mined and processed with industrial efficiency. The more pieces of information we can "access" and the faster we can extract their gist, the more productive we become as thinkers."
Claim #2- "The last thing these companies want is to encourage leisurely reading or slow, concentrated thought. It's in their economic interest to drive us to distraction."
-Both of these claims seemed most important because they directly analyze the importance of Carr's idea, that there is no longer any concentrated deep thought when reading due to the way Google has trained our minds.
