School - I026: III - Analyze one "New Media" tool - how it has changed some area

The actual wording was that how it has changed this area, but it is a bit too wide.

I have seen it a lot how people trust Google to find matches to words what they really don't know, how to spell the words, how to write properly.

There is one YouTube video which quite accuracy describes this situation:

Google as replacement of the dictionary

You are doubtful how some word is spelled, you just write how you hear it and press "Go" in Google, See highest matches and trust it automatically. How do you know if this is write? It is widely used between people whom are in argument how to spell something. Google even has got functionality called Google Fight. You enter two keywords and see which one has higher match. Higher match wins.

This information is actually purely subjective, can you trust people who write articles to Google and which end up in top of search results? They might be wrong or maybe are they right?

This kind of new media has got strong effects on people culture and dictionaries may become extinct. Google also has got Google Translate which is today implementing machine learning and has ability to translate between different languages without much human algorithms involved.

Of course there is a question, can you buy your words to be on the top of search? can you add your product to the translation result example? Like: "Johnny went to store to buy Milla milk".

We are being productized and there is nothing what we can do, unless we go Open Source. Where do we end up? Do we get more ignorant by day regarding to words and spelling or is this the future which we have to take in account and live with it?
