Dear Hive Friend and Hive Learner Members,

When I was in collage the internet was not common and we use to go to the cyber cafe ot internet lab in the collage of we want to do some research on some topic or want to dig some information on some topic. The cyber cafe person was use to charge on hourly basis. The other option was to go to library available near to us (usually a collage liberary) a reach for the relative literature available. We have to put efforts to get the information. But now days a school going kid has the access to the internet and that also know how to use it, so the information is available on tips. It's not wrong if I says the over information also available to almost all of us now days, which is very easily accessible and also cost almost nothing. The boom of internet technology and availability of smart phone make it happened. Do this make us more informative or make us more knowledgeable? Do we get advantage of present situation or we are getting more lazy? I am trying to share my view on such such questions.
When we got anything very easily we do not value it. It's a true fact and you easily correlation it with the things happened around us. The same is applicable to the knowledge also. In past it's not easy as you have to put lots of efforts, even the person traveled a long distance and form one location to another location to chase andl dig the information and knowledge about some specific topic. We know the knowledge power and our ancestors pass on this to the next generations and some time some special or specific knowledge is belongs to some specific reason or persons because of this. You must heared of some secret ingredients used by the people of some specific reason. The ingredient is a secret as the knowledge of same is limited to small group of people. But in today's technology era the news spread very fast and their are very less chance that such secrets may be secret anymore.
Availability of knowledge or access to knowledge is on aspect using it for purpose is important. Even if we have access to it but still be need the efforts to put it in reality and this is what matters. The over knowledge is also dangerous as most of the time it's misleading also. The source of information is also important as this is the one way to ensure the authenticity of the information and to avoid the misleading facts. On one side the internet is big source of information and knowledge on other side it provides the mis information also. As anyone can upload the content or provide the audiosl / video or written content on public domain it's available to all, some people may use it for bad intentions also to mislead or manuplate the information for their personal benifits also.
Now days every second person uploading the videos on various social media platforms. Some of them are about traveling, exploring the new places, art and craft, food etc. Do you think every one can cook and prepare a delicious food form those videos, interest of people matters a lot and they have to do the trials and practice also. This all can happened with personal interest only. I love to have the kitchen garden in my house but I have to put efforts to make it reality after watching the various informative videos on internet.
In my opinion the easy access to knowledge make is less valuable. People care about the knowledge they have or places like library or other institutions where they can grasp some knowledge but now days when it's available for almost free the people do not worth it. The person with some specific knowledge were used the more respective in the society but this is not the case now days.
