Publisher's Summary: Technology is drowning the world with information. But it's also beginning to produce new tools to make sense of it all. The following 3 articles, part of a Wall Street Journal Special Report on technology, examine the severity of our current information overload and explores possible solutions for easing the strain. In "Managing the Mountain," Don Clark says that most people today feel overwhelmed by the amount of information they are required to digest. But, he adds, that help is on the way. William M. Bulkeley interviewed CEO Gregory Summe of EG&G; Inc. about how he stays on top of the information heap. Listen to the discussion in "The View from the Top." And, "In Search of...", by Nick Wingfield, describes the road to a better search engine - and a more manageable Internet. The full report is available in a special collection called simply, Wall Street Journal Special Report on Technology Overload. |
