News input

• Is uncontrollably big for an average consumer, or in fact anybody, especially if you put your remote controller and paper down and start whacking your mouse. There is almost an indefinite amount of sources, and these mostly recycle information from a few main ones. Then they add a few adds and "provide" it to us in a familiar form. As many before me, I often ask myself, what if the recycling over-transforms or eradicates the substance I want or need?
• The most persuasive answer to this problem is still, that you should always check as many information outlets as possible which are closest to the source of the information (example: Reuters, BBC feed...) and evaluate them with a lot of scepticism and common sense. A good sense of humor is usually very useful as well.
• The technology will always try to follow the demand. And the demand is to be able to follow the news input as efficiently as possible, because no one really has 10 hours every day to evaluate news. And I feel that the supply is already here or here...
• It may still have some limitations and operational hick-ups, but the sole idea of creating a programme that sorts all the vital input into a more transparent matrix or form is a brilliant platform on which further development will surely follow.
• So, it is a bit ironic, but the media that knits this news Gordian knot ( the Internet ), also provides the Alexanders sword to cut it. But in the end its up to us to decide if and how to use The sword.
