Navigating Knowledge

New forms of social collaboration and social networking worldwide are growing as the Internet and wireless devices continue to evolve. Use of blogs, wikis, Facebook and MySpace is exploding. And, of course, search engines such as Google and Bing have universalized access to knowledge.

As journalist John Battelle stated: “Search is no longer a stand-alone application, a useful but impersonal tool for finding something on a new medium called the World Wide Web. Increasingly, search is our mechanism for how we understand ourselves, our world and our place within it. It’s how we navigate the one infinite resource that drives human culture: knowledge.”
