Content, Not Containers

The discussion of how we now get information and how it is so readily available to us was the most intriguing part of this article to me.  The fact that you can "google" a particular subject and come up with all sorts of article, books and information makes it seem credible and true.  The smaller amount of content that a person accesses, the less informed that he is.  At what point does an author or researcher just publish the smallest amount of context fearing that is all his audience may read?  If you know that a google search may turn up 15 pages of material, how do you get your information to the first pages or entry, so it will be viewed?  

It is great that technology has evolved so much that we don't have to rely on only a few sources to get information.  But with that evolution, people can be misinformed due to poor choices in what they select to read.  The use of a WebBrain, where people are visually led to different sources of information could help streamline what it is someone is looking for but also help in making a more informed choice of a resource to read and believe.
