What is Information?
Feb 5th, 2010
Following with this weeks theme of videos on parade, here is a great video on information from Maya Research. It seems we often forget that information isn’t diagrams or tables of data on a page, its not actually something we can see or point to. "We often confuse information with the form that it takes." Context is also critical here too. This has a throwback to the old adage of "its not the medium, its the message." (via Kristina Halvorson)
