Information overload: the river analogy
Dawn Foster from WebWorkerDaily on the information overload of social networks. Love the river analogy:
Think about it like a river of information. When you have a few minutes, you can dip your toes into the water for a little break, but you don’t need to spend the entire day swimming in it. Participating in social web sites is like a huge chat room. You participate when you can, but you don’t need to catch up on the conversations that you missed during the times when you weren’t in the chat.
