Research.
When I am researching a topic, I immediately look for websites with sources and expert imputs. I tend to avoid sites that are biased and do not have much information. I have started to use the Delta library for more research. They have lots of sources and different databases. Not to mention they are all credited and are excellent sources. When I am looking something up for personally information or just to know, I usually google it or use wikipedia. Sometimes I use Yahoo Answers! if it is something that another person can tell me. Whether I am looking researching for a paper or for myself, I always turn to the internet.

The internet is always a good source of information, as long as you research in the way you stated. I get hung up though on some sites, and sometimes the internet has too much conflicting, uncredible information about the topic you are looking for. I tend to stick to books written by experts, personally.
ReplyDeleteMe too. It seems the days of using books are long passed us. I don't even remember the last time I used a book, other than one for a class, to do research. The library and databases can be very helpful, especially with assignments.
