Probably not a small nitpick, really, but the article explains not that we&#x27;re dumber by using Facebook, but that we are less informed.  I think that&#x27;s an important distinction not only because people tend to conflate knowledge and intelligence&#x2F;aptitude, but because we should worry as much about spending long amounts of time doing things that provide not even nominal information to keep our brains pliable and receptive to new knowledge and new ways of thinking.
