4.0 out of 5 stars information not data, March 1, 2009
This review is from: The Information Society as Post-Industrial Society (Paperback)
45 years ago my teacher told me that INFORMATION is ANYTHING reducing my lack of knowledge / understanding phenomena -- my ENTROPIA. The most inportant for me 'anything' is data which I process to create and use MY INFORMATION. I do value computers as a mean to supply DATA, which I can use to crate information and use it accordingly to my needs. Excellent presentation of new society vision thanks to IT properly applied and used. I cannot aggree with some far going conclusions presented by the Author, anyway the yers old vision is pertinent and impressive, mq
