Four recently announced reports



Recently in the news, some reports regarding the size and future of online
information:

1.  Latest report from the OCLC Office of Research Web Characterization
project:

2.  Report on the "Deep Web" from BrightPlanet:

3.  Report from the UC Berkeley School of Information Management &
Systems:  "How Much Information?"

http://www.sims.berkeley.edu/how-much-info/

4.  And now for something completely different:  The Pfeiffer Report
suggests that most online publications may be very short-lived in deed.
Online content doesn't make money (for the most part).  The report
suggests that the Internet is not a replacement for current information
delivery models, but rather than extension of them.
