"AFTER THREE DAYS WITHOUT READING, TALK LOSES ITS FLAVOR."
I thought this quote was rather interesting. I think many people - especially those who do not see talking as sharing "personal" information- do rely on the MEDIA for information that sparks them, and which they pass on to others who they imagine are interested in the same subjects. For many, the reading is the newspaper, or the news posted on the Internet. The public libraries are full mostly of people who are using the Internet for e-mail, blogs, and websites, job search, resume building, and informational resources. But while journalists for pay pride themselves on the accuracy of their reporting and take some responsibility, many websites that are contributory are about rumor mongering, or even have dark agendas.
Evaluating the usefulness of a web site is important.
