2. Let’s go out on a limb and say
somebody already asked it! (Yay for
internet).
What’s this? A PhD in the field of
question writes you a detailed response
on Yahoo answers?
What’s to come of your life, now that
you can answer your own questions?
3. So your in the market for a new TV?
Let’s GOOGLE the TV and read about
the 10 billion reviews people have taken
time out of their life to write, so YOU
don’t make the same mistake they did.
Or, you can go out on an impulse and
buy a TV that won’t suit your needs
despite the genies’ all over the internet
begging you not to make their mistake!
4. Now that you can pretty much address all the problems
plaguing humanity by asking Google, let’s explore who
has the answer you NEED!
Considering the internet is chalk full of the same clown shoes
that refuse to learn from others’ mistakes despite it being
published in every language including Pig Latin, we need to find
that PhD's result to your search, not this guy’s.
It’s not true just because its on the internet! It’s true because you
know what your looking for, verified WHO wrote it, distinguished it
between fact and opinion, and if they are analyzing something
or summarizing it!!!!
5. “The difference between fact and opinion is that a fact is
something that is empirically true and can be supported by
evidence, while an opinion is a belief that may or may not be
backed up with some type of evidence. An opinion is
normally a subjective statement that can be the result of an
emotion or an individual interpretation of a fact. For example,
biological differences between males and females are a fact
while a preference for one gender over the other is opinion.”

There may be times when your looking for someone’s opinion, also, times when you
don’t care what they think; you want the facts!!! This is important to be able to
decipher when searching for your answer.
6. A "summary" covers the main points succinctly. An "analysis"
explores the main points and interprets them. Wisegeek.

So you found a creditable source, boasting factual
information… So WHAT! Is this information being spoon fed to
you by someone analyzing the facts your looking for by
providing a arguable interpretation?
7. Four steps to success-
1. GOOGLE
2. Analysis the source
3. Distinguish fact from opinion
4. Consider if the information is based on
summary or analysis.
You now own the world, limitless. Go construct
the next pyramid, cure cancer, solve physics,
and travel to Mars. Just don’t forget to consult
Google first and read about peoples pathetic
attempts before rolling your own game plan out.
