My 2 cents is that I can ask just about any question I can think of and absorb and internalize an amazing answer in 5 minutes of reading. Many of those same questions can be automatically asked and answered too. The web and search engines are realizing the promise far better than anything else.

God I wish I felt this way. It's true that I can get an amazing amount of information in a short time, but I don't know how accurate or complete it is, and I don't even know how to find out.
