Information Management

I've got a pre-exam test on IM (Information Management, not Instant Messenger) today.

I was wonderfully surprised to see an article on the same subject turn up on slashdot.
It's an interview with Sir Arthur C Clarke.
Here's a quotable quote from the article.
... it is vital to remember that information, in the sense of raw data, is not knowledge;
that knowledge is not wisdom;
and that wisdom is not foresight.
Sir Arthur C Clarke


Humanity will survive information deluge ? Sir Arthur C Clarke
