I believe that the development of information technology had a lot to do with us doing less. We live more and more in a virtual world that gives us the illusion of doing something, while all we are really doing is pressing keys, moving a mouse and watching a screen. Yes we are living more and more in the digital world, and when all the knowledge of the world is only a google search away, even using our own mind becomes futile, memorizing stuff becomes optional since it is all there in cyberspace. This digital era is a double edged sword which makes us both more powerful and more lazy.
