Surfing the internet superhighway, an information collectors dream
If you have a web browser you are ready to search and find information. You can look at news both written and video feeds. You can check the weather, the almanac, driving conditions, find out who plays Mr. so and so in the movie you just watched and the list goes on. University of Phoenix has an online library that is 2nd only to the US Library of Congress and that is just one web site out of billions. Bloggers write about things that are meaningless and things that are important that no one else will report. If you have a love for information then you will soon know why the internet is called the information superhighway. Most of the time just like on a regular highway any vehicle will do. In truth, the speed at which you can type in information, read what is on a site to see if it is what you are looking for, process it and then move on will in most cases be the thing that slows you down. Also like a car you can spend a lot and have the capability to go faster then anyone else on the road even if you never use it. The thing you will find when you are gathering information is that with so much out there you will quickly need to manage what things you keep and what things you learn to reference when you need it. Only one word of caution - Almost always the first need of all information seekers is more hard drive space to put everything.
