Information Evolution
• Communication: Linear -> Non-linear -> Circular
• Information finds people through shares, likes &
retweets
• Information & sources of information are abound;
audiences are limited.
• Facts are scare; opinions are scattered everywhere.
• Yet, in the floods of useless opinions; facts are still
sacred.
