See if you agree with the writer of this blog post!

There are so many great blog posts. As we all know, the Internet is growing exponentially.

The Information Highway is the original term.

I used to call it a tsunami of  information.Now I deem it to be:

a tsunami of information tsunamis!(Information Overload is becoming a serious problem for many.)

In any case, it is great to find a collection like this! Take your time to explore  it. Add your fav’s, too. Enjoy!

    Safety is an important issue for all of us! This critical information is especially crucial for our vulnerable (& often naive)children and young adults.

    Take some time to read this carefully, and share it with all those people who are especially important to you(family/friends/co-workers). You know the old saying:

“An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure”.

You get the idea. :-)

Following Twitter?

How on earth do you follow 100+ people, without getting information overload?

Here are some of my ideas:

  • be selective about whom you follow(are their tweets useful to you?)
  • check your own followers, now & then
  • block nasty/obnoxiuos timewasters & spammers
  • keep your lists to a minimum

 There are more great ideas here, in a brief pdf:

Some ideas are outdated, like Twanslate- but there is a lot of very useful information here. See for yourself!
