This video has useful statistics on how students use technology for learning in and out of school.

This video explains that unlike a library, information on the internet is not stored in one particular way.  I really like the quote ‘there is no shelf’ (especially as a devotee of The Matrix!).
It also suggests that instead of having creators and readers of information, we are all now empowered to be both.  This means that instead of the internet being information, the internet is us!

This video clearly explains how the communication of information is evolving from writing on a piece of paper, to text on a webpage, to creating your own videos.  It also explores how this ever expanding mass of information is being searched, sorted, tagged, mashed up and made into something new.
