Jory,
This is a great comment! I completely agree that information overload is a major problem that in a sense was only made worse by by Web 2.0 -- there's so much more stuff out there now to wade through. Fortunately, though W2.0 brought a heightened level of participation which ended up with so much more clutter, it also developed tools that should eventually be able to help. Perhaps it's "digital intimacy" in which we are connected to our friends online and we are better known by our vendors such that they can help cut through the clutter. But clearly digital intimacy brings with it privacy concerns and cultural implications. A good topic for a future edition of the newsletter!
