Work Place Stress

Well now you know I have tons and tons of information. What next? You know the old song ” sixteen tons and what do you get?–”INFORMATION OVERLOAD ho ho ho.

A long with that comes help me someone, help me someone because I have C O N fusion. That’s right confusion. Where do I start? Better question is how do I start to sort out all the information? I think I’ll start over again and give Jim’s ideas a try.

If you have your own tips, drop a few here. If Jim’s tips help any, glad to hear you could  get a few things that work for you.

Using a Search Engine is great. I’m finally getting
somewhere. Typing the subject into the Google
search box, clicking “GO”, ta dah! A whole page
on the subject. AM I GREAT OR WHAT!!! A whole
page on the subject.

What’s this little writing at the top right side?
“Results 1-10 of about 2.180,567 entries.  What!
It will take a life time to read all that. Yes the
internet has tons of information.

Looking at the list , I can see a short description
following the web site name. There doesn’t seem
to be any order to the list. Some describe basic i
nformation, others I can’t understand, while others
don’t even seem to relate to the subject.

Didn’t anyone think of classifying this information?
Like when you go to the library or a bookstore? All
the kids books here, over there the novel, and
there the business books. Not even a clue!

Do you have a way to sort out the different types
of information? How do you tell if the information is
what your need? Send a comment or a tip that
you use.

The internet is full of free information. But you can’t
turn on your computer, go to the internet and have
tons of information fall out of the computer. What’s
the secret? The trick to finding the information you
what. It’s very easy once you know how to search
the internet.

Knowing someone who is a “geek” is really handy. Just
ask them and you get loads of information. For those
who don’t know any “geeks”, there is an easy way.
You use a search engine. What’s that? you ask.
You’ve heard of them before didn’t know what they do.
A search engine has a large data base of information.
Put in the subject you want and PRESTO! out comes
pages of information. Two of the best known search
engines are Google and Yahoo.

Go to the internet. There you will see, usually in the
top left side of the page, the name Google with a
blank box after it. Place the subject name in the box,
press the enter key and in a few seconds there is all
the information at your finger tips. Use Yahoo the
same way. So now you know how to find information
on the internet. Happy searching!
