Hmm, very interesting post, and I think it's very true. I shudder when I hear the phrase "lit review."

Never discount that trudge to the library! Even though the internet is gaining more and more reliable sites it is also gaining more and more unreliable information. Anyone can post whatever they want!
There is also something to be said for spending the time researching and digging for the best information instead of the instant gratification of typing your query into Google and taking whatever comes up first (regardless of its reliability). Of course, I'm sure you expect a comment like this from me. But, I appreciate your comments on the subject and agree with you. The internet is great for many things (how did we ever find good flights before?) but I think it is vital that we use it for what it is good for and keep in mind that just because something is posted on a website it is not necessarily fact.
