What you prefer for

[islamis4u]

what you prefer for your studies internet or books?

 

[robhol]

The Net.. easier to search, easier to find what you need.

 

[Brandon]

Books, they are more reliable than the internet.

 

[goodsnpr]

Books - usually more accurate, easier to cite as a source as I usually loose internet sites I go to, and are still useable without power (lots of brownouts down here )

 

[nexhunter]

i would go with books easier and if your internet dies or the website you get info from shutdown/restart/for good then you wouldn't have the info any more

 

[manzoor]

both

 

[reichiru]

Both, there's something both good and bad about using either one. Books, more reliable, takes more time though. Net, easier to find information, but you can't always be sure you have collected the right information.

 

[Spartan Erik]

Both, but primarily books.

 

[googleminigames]

internet can be very helpful but books are more reliable half the time

 

[QueenHawkeye]

I usually use both. The internet more convenient but some of the information might not be creditable/accurate enough for school. Books on the other hand, some are harder to find than others, but most of the time they are from credible sources.

 

[islamis4u]

yeah i think everyone is right internet information not so reliable but as books but its faster to find but one thing book also improve is your finding skill or analyzing things

 

[Staind1982]

I have used both. However, most of my professors either limited the number of internet references (unless peer-reviewed journals) or disallowed them completely. Some even wanted the entire internet article to accompany the paper. But the internet is great at finding quick facts or avenues to take in getting information from the book source. I would say try to use the internet first to get some information they try to back up any sketchy information with (tangible) books.

 

[mr kennedy]

the net! I just search for the things I need and it's there

 

[rmojica]

until now no one beats BOOK, still much better reading books than ebooks.

 

[islamis4u]

the thing it take much time to read on net because when i sat on net or on computer i can't study on computer i start doing other things rather then studying

 

[bigmanbfa2]

lol I'm an operating system developer, the net is helpful, but for the real meat and potatoes kind of info, books are the way to go. Andrew Tenenbaum is a lifesaver.

 

[satheesh]

I use both.
but i think internet is better.

yeah you are right internet may be helpful but it can never take the place of the books

 

[Gouri]

The internet is more easy to search for the required information. Mainly i collect the ebooks so i will search in them first them i will go to Internet.

With the uprising of Wikipedia and it's high article standards, I'd say that before too long it will be just as notable as any printed encyclopedia. Their goal it to bring together the entire sum of all human knowledge and share it freely in all languages. It's quite possibly one of the greatest milestones in the advancement of modern day man. Even if it fails to meet it's goal the attempt is notable and worthy of a Nobel peace prize or six.
