Information Content

Information Content, where do we get i and what is it? Well I depends on what we use, we have reference books, magazines, maps and others. Let's compare 2 types of informative pieces. lets's use The newspaper vs. the internet. Now the newspaper comes out either everyday or every week depending on where you are the internet is ALWAYS there and always updated dependinf on what source you use. If you want a quick answer to a news story for example a building that caught on fire today than it would most likely be on the internet on a news website. It will also be in a newspaper but you will have to wait for the information to be investigated, revised,printed and distributed. Now you will get up to the minute information via the web but it may not all be there and it could be wrong. Usually when it is printed in the newspaper it is correct. Also you must take into consideration that senior citizens or "old people" do not know how to use the computer let alone turn the computer on so the best way for them to retreive information is through the paper. Its all a personal prefrence and depends on demographics.~Nickel
