15. Search and research

There are many ways to do research, most of which produce masses of words which simply confuse. However, there are two ways that make life a little simpler, using the latest internet technology. The best appear to be Zotero and Yahoo Search Pad. Both have videos on their front pages to help explain how you can log information, its source and save in a convenient format.

However, there is a rumour that there is another (commercial) form which not only save the information from the web, but then turns it into a concept map. However, more details are awaited before I can confirm it. But it could be of significant benefit to many people.
