We all value information! But we all must admit some bits of information are more important to us than others. Whether the cowboys lost last nights game or Nissan shares go up today, personal opinion and bias affect which information we choose to value. Our personal values and interests will have the greatest effect on what information we prefer.
The article we read in class about valuing information brings out an interesting point: Flow of Infomation. This concept looks at how information travels and how it travels so quickly! You must consider, through what means is it getting to the individual? There are so many pieces of technology nowadays that information travels "at the speed of light".
Within the realm of information out there, there is a vast amount purely for consumption. This is information that we read only for pleasure and entertainment. This can include anything from magazines, to celebrity blogs, to following famous people on twitter.
Information I enjoy reading for entertainment purposes can be found by following this link:
