The internet is amazing, no question, but it will makie dummies of us all in the end, because reading will cease to exist and that is where wisdom is gained. Also it has spawned a class of "know it alls" (not you)who actually know bog all, just a few dodgy facts gleaned from the net and the veracity of such information is questionable.
As to where I learned my fishing knowledge, most would say - "What knowledge?!"
I work in a scientific job and have made an invention or two. For me, it’s the net every time I need some information, and then I end up aimlessly surfing from link to link out of interest.
A great invention? Steam engines.

Access to information or a love for books isn’t the problem, it’s a lack of curiosity that prevents people from dipping in to these resources. People with curiosity will still seek knowledge for the sake of it, whether from books or the more immediately accessible internet. Just look at us fishermen pouring over internet reports, reviews and banter.

Take any teenager of today and tell me that they will want to educate their children in 15 years. They won't, because they have no knowledge themselves.
Each generation over the last 100 years have learned less than their predecessors and now with the internet that process has increased considerably.
The education system has the most to answer for, as now sitting a Higher in Englsh, has been reduced to nothing more than a quiz!Last edited by kayos; 30-01-2015, 11:49 PM.2016 - Cod, Dab, Dogfish, Gurnard, Ling, Mackerel, Saithe, Scorpian fish. .

I've learnt an awful lot from the internet. I suppose it's up to the individual how much they take/learn from it. It's as educational as you make and like it or not it's most definitely reading. After all, I've read each post to get to writing this reply. I can sit for hours in the comfort of my own home 'reading' up on all aspects of fishing or whatever I choose to 'read'.
So for me the internet is right up there but let's not forget about what it takes to power itLast edited by topbanana; 31-01-2015, 07:32 AM.Regards Nicky.
