Is Technology Making Us Dumber?

Is technology making us dumber? This video explains the results of what happened when a group of neuroscientists "unplugged" from technology for five days. The scientists cite research that states that there's some restorative power that comes from taking a break from technology. The scientists also seem to think technology doesn't necessarily make us dumber, but the way we use technology may not always be good for us.
