I’m usually a very skeptical person. I don’t follow Amazon’s recommendations; I don’t buy much in eBay and I have never installed a facebook application.

However there’s one thing I’m almost always persuaded to do and that is getting more information about some fact I read in the news (of course, if the described situation worth it). I try to read the digital version of my favorite newspapers and I usually click on the same links: technology, culture, economy. I know I will end up somewhere else. Clicking has no price of any kind (apart from time) and I enjoy going from one page to other to get more specifics about what I’m reading. This is one of the unbeatable qualities of computers: inmediate access to tons of information.

In particular I’m very easy to convinced when the information is related to some historical character. Maybe there’s a little description of a situation or some excerpts of a biography, and that’s it. I’m already going from the news to wikipedia and from there to related links, and so on.

I guess I can’t help being curious!
