Information Overload

There is nothing far-fetched about what Mark Nelson has to say about information overload and its hold over our society. The Internet is an ever-expanding realm that has become more of a catalyst for frustration than anything else. Was not the point of the Internet to make gaining access to needed information quicker and easier? It seems that this novel idea has become just that, novel. Eliminating unnecessary results only distracts the reader from reaching their ultimate goal. The only problem is that with the amount of new information added to the Internet on a daily basis, there seems to be no viable solution for the problem at hand.
