Information overload, you need to toggle me please

Jump to Comments

Make no mistake I love the web. Whatever my interests or ideas, you can find detailed and stimulating information. For example recently I explored the idea of wireless marketing beacons. I found half a dozen sites that provided good insight. Sadly as the next day arrived my attention was diverted to the next interesting challenge.

Then three weeks later I managed to revisit the issue. However bookmarks where difficult to recreate, and I almost found myself doing the research over. This is the classic case of information overload. There is just to much of the stuff. Who wins, who gets my attention?

Well the answer is, whoever talks directly to me in the language I understand, i.e. who understands what I am thinking, and what I need next. Since most activities are a sequence of events, I am looking for information which fills in that sequence.

I need someone who will talk directly to this sequence. Currently the best way to communicate with me directly is via email. If I know who you are, have opened my permissions to you - then I will be happy to continue a discussion. Then if the information you provide is valuable, I won’t even object if you provide me with more unsolicited, or just simply toggle me when you think you have something useful.
