I don't think the author did a very good job of making the case that people are thinking less due to the web.

I'd rather spend my deduction and imagination time on problem solving than information gathering.
Or to be more specific: I'd rather spend my deduction and imagination time engaged with my peers on solving problems, than sitting in quiet contemplation of information that I do not have convenient access to.

Why is your "deduction and imagination" time a fixed quantity? The thrust of the argument in favor of learning through books rather than the internet is that you will spend an equal amount of external problem solving time, but more internal problem solving time as part of the information gathering process.
