UCLA study has interesting results regarding older humans doing internet searching. Increased brain activity (per MRI) similar to reading, but better!? They say the more you search, (over time) the more "improvement.".
Study draws conclusions from brain activity alone, seems light on any post-searching cognitive improvement.
Gonna open up a whooole new line of excuses for older web addicts.....

The tiniest measurable unit of brain activity registered by the fMRI is called a voxel.
