Useful Information Is Hard to Get
As the picture given depicts, several staff are having a meeting while one of them complained, "We have lots of information technology. We just don't have much useful information." What the picture is trying to present is that even though equipped with advanced devices and information technology, we can hardly obtain helpful information that we need.
A multitude of reasons can account for the phenomenon. First of all, as we are increasingly dependent on various advanced devices, they have brought us a lot of information. However, faced with so much information, we're actually not competent enough to tell the useful information from the useless one. What's more, that the network management regulations are not perfect is a fact that cannot be ignored, which makes it difficult to prevent our life being lumbered with useless information.
From my point of view, as we are now in a great new era of information, we cannot say no to the benefits that information technology has brought us. However, it's high time we transferred our focus from obtaining more information to discriminating information. Only in this way can we acquire the exact information that we need.
