We frequently need to make decisions about our financial position, about politics, what we need to wear, how and where we are going to spend our leisure time, our holiday destinations, where to dine, what car to buy, what organisation to support…… We need correct information to take the best decisions at the right time. If the information that we base our decisions on are outdated or incorrect, it may have negative or sometimes tragic consequences. Information leads to knowledge about our environment and our existence.


At the flip side of the coin there is also some information that we as individuals or organisations possess that we want to share with others in order for them to take informed decisions at the right time. It might be our own knowledge, or the products that we are selling that could enrich the lives of other people. Whatever the purpose, the information that we want to present to the public should be timely and appropriate such that it could have an impact on their decisions.
 


The Internet is but one of many communication media. In our very short discussion here we could envisage it as existing of three layers. On the lowest level we have the technology that enables us to transmit and to store the information in digital form (the servers). The second level consists of the presentation of the information in such a way that humans are able to interpret it. The top level articulates the information that is presented. The reader should be able to, and want to, internalise the information in order to bring about understanding and knowledge.

At Ontoweb Media we understand the importance of the correct use and application of information for your personal or organi- sational use. Thus we can supply you with all the Internet information services in one package, from website hosting and website development to eNewsletters and eMaga- zines.
