A long time ago people used to visit libraries or used to purchase books to gain information and seek knowledge. In a not too distant past even, kids would huddle around their fathers, near a cozy fire place, to learn amazing and wonderful stories about ancient lands and their inhabitants. Owning an encyclopedia meant you had the smartest kids. Your library membership was a status quo then. But, the advent of internet changed all that. Now, all it takes to find information on any subject is a click of the mouse.  The next step in online information is information products.

Websites, like Wikipedia, are mega-storehouses of information. Anything and everything you wish to know about is available on these sites. But what if you wish to learn how to make money through internet, or how to write a medical transcription, or start a home business? The answer lies in information products.

The information products are e products or online products that inform a user on a particular topic. They could also be defined as a final product, in the form of information, which a user needs to have. E-books, podcasts, and videos are the different types of information products.

An information product could cover a variety of topics such as:

* Business to business
* Health and Fitness
* Cooking and Recipes
* Home improvement
* Computing and Internet etc

If you are wondering whether you could benefit from these products or not, read this: Tom Wong, an Asian-American, lost his job in the credit crisis. With a family to support, he did not know where the next paycheck would come from. He wanted to start a business but did not know how to go about it. A friend guided him to download an e-book on starting a home business.

Not only did Mr. Wong run a successful business trading Chinese antiques online, he also started a new online venture which sells chinaware to customers and businesses. The e-book guided Mr. Wong, and helped him come out of his crisis very swiftly. 

The internet is beaming with many success stories like Mr. Wong’s. Another user made millions of bucks by promoting third party goods and services via his website.

You may not want to start a home business, but probably want information on  various other things like how to make desserts, trim your garden, design your clothes, or/and build a website. An information product can thus help one find the information you are seeking in the easiest way. 

Gone are the days when people scanned one book after another to find relevant information.  The internet not only offers a wealth of information, but it also helps one remain updated on the new advancements in their field. E-books and other types of online information acquaint a user to the very latest advancements in their field of interest.

We are living in the information age. Information is hence important in the process of development of an individual, country, and even the whole of universe. Future projects may deal with developing information systems and services.  Studies reveal that over sixty percent of people are able to do their professional assignments with the help of this information only. As an information product can help you gain information which cannot be obtained from other resources.

Thinking Math Problem?

It seems like such an easy question, and it probably is haha, but I just don’t know how to do it!

1. It takes David 6 hours to hoe our garden. When George comes to visit us, it takes him 10 hours to do the same amount of work. Today, they ahve decided to work together. How long will it take David and George to hoe the whole garden? Give the answer in minutes.

Ok, this one is a little bit more challenging I think!

2. Tim is looking at his encyclopedia of math games. It has four unnumbered cover pages and 256 interior pages, numbered from 1 to 256. The left pages have even numbers, and the right pages have odd numbers.
Tim opens up his encyclopedia at random. He adds up the six digits of the two page numbers in front of him. The sum is the greatest it can be. What is the number on the LEFT page?

Any help is appreciated!!!!! =]

David can hoe 1/6 of the garden in an hour, where George can hoe 1/10 of the garden in an hour. Add these together

1/6 + 1/10 and get 4/15, which means they could both do 4 gardens in 15 hours… which means that they would take 3.75 hours to do one garden, which equals 225 minutes

For the second one, if I understand the question correctly, it would be 198 and 199. The part that I looked at said “the sum is the greatest it can be,” and I am pretty sure out of those numbered pages that is the highest sum you can get from two consecutive pages. So, since the left page has even numbers, I would say the number on the left page would be 198.
