Information Overload

Feeling a bit overwhelmed by information? This site will open your eyes.

Alan Kucheck (a Borland VP) tipped me off to this research. Perhaps this explains why he doesn't have is own Weblog. ;-)

If you created 800 MBytes of new information last year, congratulations: You're as prolific as the average person on the planet.

That's a big number, but it will likely grow faster than we can imagine. This is the "information tsunami" that we refer to from time-to-time.

Although MyST and MySmartChannels are far from the solution to this rapid per-capita growth of content, they do represent useful tools for chipping away at many of the information problems that are best addressed by lose-coupling applications.
