Information age

We are living very exciting times. When I was a kid, Internet was just forming up. I had a plenty of free time but it was really hard to find information. I had to stick with the limited resources of my local library which was not from a walking distance from my home. Another option was to use Internet, but there was no Google or Wikipedia, you had to know the addresses where to find anything. Usually the best place to find help about nerdy topics was from Usenet newsgroups. Programming tips where shared mouth to mouth and instead of cut-and-paste we did type-in-programs.

Now the information is everywhere. It's easy to find and it's available for almost anybody. So what's the next step? What if the information goes fun now? It's not just available but it's also fun. And we tend to learn more and better if we enjoy doing it. You can already see this coming, there are games, comics, virtual teacher and environment to try hack and learn. If learning is fun and play then anybody will be enthusiastic about learning things that some people might now consider annoying work.
