Information. It is simply knowledge or facts. But Wikipedia has something a little more interesting going on about the definition. This is:"Information, in its most restricted technical sense, is an ordered sequence of symbols.

Free distribution and sharing of Information, online, is very much evident. This is also true about the promotion of the same. For instance, The W3C's vision is One Web. One of the consortium's primary goals is to make the benefits of the web available to all people, irrespective of their hardware, software, network infrastructure, native language, culture, geographical location, physical or mental ability.
The commercial internet does not tail behind, too, in the promotion of Information. This is evident where Marketers use the 'free newsletters' strategy to market. And, this is just but to mention a few.

The two masters of Harvard argued that:
"There are 3 characteristics of Information which, when combined with Disruptive Internet Technologies, can have a major impact on the market place."
These include:
These include:
- Reach.
- Richness.
- Affiliation.
"Disruptive Internet Technologies - Internet-based communication approach which changes the way in which information about products is exchanged, which impacts the basis for competition in a market place."
