El primero de los artículos que he elegido. Excelente! The dark side of information: overload, anxiety and other paradoxes and pathologies David Bawden Department of Information Science, City University London, dbawden@soi.city.ac.uk Lyn Robinson Department of Information Science, City University London Abstract This review article identifies and discusses some of main issues and potential problems - paradoxes and pathologies - around the communication of recorded information, and points to some possible solutions. The article considers the changing contexts of information communication, with some caveats about the identification of `pathologies of information', and analyses the changes over time in the way in which issues of the quantity and quality of information available have been regarded. Two main classes of problems and issues are discussed. The first comprises issues relating to the quantity and diversity of information available: information overload, information anxiety, etc. The second comprises issues relating to the changing information environment with the advent of Web 2.0: loss of identity and authority, emphasis on micro-chunking and shallow novelty, and the impermanence of information. A final section proposes some means of solution of problems and of improvements to the situation.

Socrative is a smart student response system that empowers teachers to engage their classrooms through a series of educational games and exercises via smartphones and tablets. Our apps are super simple and take seconds to load and run. Teachers control the questions and games on their laptop, while students respond and interact through their smartphones/laptops.

As web companies strive to tailor their services (including news and search results) to our personal tastes, there's a dangerous unintended consequence: We get trapped in a "filter bubble" and don't get exposed to information that could challenge or broaden our worldview. Eli Pariser argues powerfully that this will ultimately prove to be bad for us and bad for democracy.

Este artículo en Open Access (Müller-Wille, S., & Charmantier, I. (2012). Natural history and information overload: The case of Linnaeus. Studies in History and Philosophy of Science Part C: Studies in History and Philosophy of Biological and Biomedical Sciences, 43(1), 4-15.) nos viene a demostrar que la sobrecarga informativa aparece en todas las ramas del saber, a veces de la forma más insospechada. Pero lo más importante es que llevamos tiempo gestionándola, con las herramientas que teníamos disponibles. Linneo (padre de la botánica moderna) tuvo que inventar la taxonomía (¿os suena la palabra?) para afrontar el problema al que se enfrentaba.
