Many people are confuse between data, information and knowledge. I give an example for that, If you look at a traffic light, there is three(3) colour which is Read, Yellow and Green.

Once used by being comprehended by a surfers and, by that surfers, added to all of the other information and experience that the surfers has build-up in life - it becomes knowledge. Knowledge is not information and it is not data. Knowledge is what is KNOWN. In a formula form. Knowledge = Information +Used (Human) Regards -M...

More About Tweeter

I received a comment asking how Twitter can help increase traffic to a blog. My answer was that one of the step we can take is to Tweet each time we publish a new post. Well, you can tweet all you want, but if you have no followers at Twitter, it is not going to help much. So one must try to get more followers at Twitter.
