Share your "D is for" ... story here

D is for digital. This is the age of all things digital. The possibility of digitial overload is certain. This overwhelming flow of information is exponentially increased by Web 2.0. Of course this is a good thing but at what point is the amount of informtion so great that in total it becomes useless. How do we decide what is useful and what is not. How do we agree on what info is correct or revelant since no one and everyone is the editor.
