The Nature of Information


I believe that the nature of information does a great job of explaining the many different ways there are to convey information in our every day lives. Its very interesting to see that people don’t question why information is the way it is. We as people just except things the way they are. It also puts in perspective how we as people use information to communicate with one another whether it’s from using street signs or the radio. Trough technology information is influencing our lives in numerous ways.

The Library of Babel

The Library of Babel was very good, I really liked this selection. However, it was very confusing while reading just because of the depth the author went into some things. Even though the story was very confusing, I enjoyed the fact that I had to really figure-out what was being stated and that made it more interesting to read. Some parts were very difficult to comprehend what was being said, because of the way this piece was worded. It became clearer to me in my second reading what was being said.
