RE: Blockchain Bachelor’s Thesis – Information Overload and How to Deal with It: Initial Brainstorm
The three points that you've written are very interesting. It is typical to go through information that are repetitive and redundant, especially when you are going through the feed on Facebook - when there is an event, people are going to talk about it in all different angles. How would you navigate within that to lessen the burden during the "shift"?
Sometimes, I feel lost in a library surrounded by overwhelming amounts of books and knowledge that's accumulated in the space itself. I will never know not know how I handle myself online..
To be honest with the last changes on facebook I have no idea how to work there effectively. It has started to "pull away" the content that i was reading at the moment in my feed from the feed, therefore I manually had to search for it.
What I have personally done is
Explain what information you need to dig out in those discussion about the event. I usually just need to know WHEN/WHERE/WHO/ WHO GOES TO/HOW MUCH and such information is usually right at the top of the event page. I’d like to answer but I don’t feel like I perfectly understand the question.
And yes libraries are the perfect example of "information overload prior to the information age"
BTW I just realized that I was too tired to call it properly...It is information overload not overflow :D
I could borrow a thing or two from this, seeing how ive got my feed clogged by these groups. I'll be reading.
PS: For someone who has english as a second language, you're quite excellent at it, and i really mean that!
