Brian De Palma Quotes

There's nothing that cannot be found through some search engine or on the Internet somewhere.

Today, if you have an Internet connection, you have at your fingertips an amount of information previously available only to those with access to the world's greatest libraries - indeed, in most respects what is available through the Internet dwarfs those libraries, and it is incomparably easier to find what you need.

With the Internet you can research anything.

The Internet is where we all go to for the first stop of information. It's not the library any more, it's the Internet and if I want to find out about Kate Russell, what do I do? I Google Kate Russell. Simple as that.

The web can be a fast trip to the library, giving you immediate access to a government report, or it can filter media for you, which is why I look at around 15- 20 of these sites every day.

What people actually refer to as research nowadays is really just Googling.

I don't use the Internet, but apparently you can find out everything on it.

Thanks to our modern era, facts are incredibly easy to come by. A few web searches for your subject matter, and you have all the information you could dream of.

Google is where we go for answers. People used to go elsewhere or, more likely, stagger along not knowing.

Not as much as I used to, but I use the Internet for everything. I use it for information. Like if I'm planning a trip or something, I'll check out the place I'm going to.

I think the search engines are the new equivalent of publishing: an enabler of information.

The core of what Google is about is bringing information to people.

Google indexes the world's information.

Alphabetical order had to be invented to help people organize the first dictionaries. On the other hand, we may have reached a point where alphabetical order has gone obsolete. Wikipedia is ostensibly in alphabetical order, but, when you think about it, it's not in any order at all. You use a search engine to get into it.

Google transformed the way most of us get our information with a search engine that enables us to find citizen-created media content alongside the work of professionals.

That is really not much different from the search engines that are being constructed today for users throughout the entire world to allow them to search through databases to access the information that they require.

All the information in the world has been pretty dispersed, but Google's mission has been to organize it and make it universally accessible.

Inside all the computers of any large corporation is every decision that gets made. But people spend a huge amount of time trying to find the correct piece of information.

As a research tool, the internet is invaluable.

The access to information the web provides is both daunting and exciting. Information that was once secreted away in library stacks is now so much more easily available.

Any child can tell you what Google does - Google gives you the answers. But Google doesn't, not really.

The process for finding, creating, and consuming information has fundamentally changed with the advent of the web and the rise of blogging.

That's the thing about the internet. It's really good at giving you pointless facts like how many horses a star owns, but not important things like how to invade his trailer.

The Internet is merely a new means of communication, that's all it is. It serves the purpose of getting information, which it is fantastic at. I mean, I live by the Internet in terms of research and it's incredible - there's nothing that you can't find out about. It's not stopped me going to bookshops but I must say that I don't go into as many because any book I want.

[The Internet] is by far the most important innovation in the media in my lifetime. It's like having a huge encyclopedia permanently available. There's a tremendous amount of rubbish on the world wide web, but retrieval of what you want to so rapid that it doesn't really matter
