INFORMATION OVERLOAD

“Our ability to generate information has outpaced our ability to comprehend it. We’re driven to make sense of it all, to shape and sort and classify information into systems we can use. From the days of writing on cave walls to the creation of XML, we’ve tried to do a better job of comprehending the information at hand. The thing is, we’ve become so good at creating information that it’s piling up faster than promises in a political campaign.” – *spark-online
