Meandering through Complexity

These days, whenever you want information, you can easily get it. Here is one problem: how do you distinguish garbage and gem in the information mega-highway called the internet? Those decisions come almost every minute when you click on a website to research for new information or skills.

I think the answer does not come in a single blog post. It's a journey. It's a series of journeys. And I begin this blog precisely for this very reason. There is this undeniable complexity that brings about maximum knowledge when harnessed, simplified, and tailored to suit each other's purposes.

Here in this blog, there will be seven major categories, to wit:

1. Learning Platform Features and Reviews (Technical)
2. Standalone Online Course Reviews (Substantial)
3. Course Series Reviews (Substantial)
4. Study Productivity and Time Hacks (Practical)
5. Open Universities (Regular Reviews or Features)
6. Hackathons (Event Features or Reviews)
7. Tutorials

It's a tall order, yes, considering all my other commitments. But this is a long overdue thing, considering how many inefficiencies I have seen and how so much more could have been done if there were actually more accounts about achievable productivity online.

Bottom line is pretty simple: if I have helped one confused soul who wants to optimize the use of life's time and energy, then I have done okay with this blog.

So... I won't make this too long and I shall be updating this from time to time along with my other blogs and see what comes of it later on.
