Information overload, conceptual overview

Page history last edited by bryan.alexander@... 14 years, 11 months ago

Slideshow from this morning.

 

Participants' pages, and introductions:

 

 

Not a new problem, but one with some emerging twists.

  • Journal of the history of ideas, 64.  "Early Modern Information Overload" [Special Issue].  D. Rosenberg, ed. 2003.   (Project MUSE link)
  • Ann Blair, forthcoming book: Coping With Information Overload in Early Modern Europe (Yale).  Some notes on the forthcoming book.

 

Some big-picture concepts to bear in mind:

  • Use a tool for what it does well.
  • Personal situations differ.
  • Answers are a variable mix of technology and practice.
