Infotopia 1 and 2

These chapters were interesting to me because they dealt with the Internet and what a fickle place it can really be. It always crosses my mind when I am on the web whether or not the article or website I am reading is legit. When you consider all of the people that have the freedom and knowledge to use the web it is kind of scary to consider what is reliable information and what is not. But the opposite is also true, it is quite amazing how much information is out there and the amount of people that have learned it and have learned how to publish it. I think that is how it works with technology, there is always a plus and a minus to it. We have talked about in class how it can be considered a scary thing, but I think its exciting.
