Googled out!

Technology - Boon or bane was one of the most popular topics of debates and essays back in school.Today, I am in the position to actually back this with examples.
There was not a single day in the last 8 months when we havent said "Google it out!".
I always thought how difficult it would have been for my Uncle to do his MBA in the 80's without the internet.It was the extensive knowledge gathered out of hundreds of books,different libraries,teachers.The process involved a lot of pain but it was reliable.
I just came out of a crisis situation today where the data from the internet googled me out.One of the articles on the net said ".....blah" and I simply (^C & ^V )ed the info,locked my brains in the room and went to give a presentation.Just happened to forget that the panel has people from my Uncle's generation.Oops!
Does that mean I am not gonna use the net and that I am gonna walk to the library to complete my assignments????
Nah....Kutte ki poonch k bare mein suna hai?
Next time will doubly check and be careful and  never forget that a teacher always knows more and thats why he/she is there.
