What is Information. . . We constantly view information, hear information, and create information. Data is certainly part of information, but it seems inadequate as a definition by itself. Information is sometimes true, but the Information Highway is rife with typos, distorted data, personal paranoias, and just plain wackiness. Spy agencies love to sow disinformation.
Information can be true, or it can be misleading and wrong.
Knowledge is the goal for information. Information is a prerequisite for wisdom, but wisdom seems to be two levels above information. Wisdom integrates both intellectual and experiential information. Maybe by defining what information is not, I've finally backed information into a locatable corner. Information seems to be the middle ground between data and knowledge.
