Sources to find information

So my best sources to find information are at first "wikipedia" and "Google" France and UK. I use a lot Google's search engine when the information found on wikipedia do not satisfy me. I also use sites such as "Le journal du net" in which you can find much information on internet industry: new technologies, products,... but also "Mediametrie" for statistics,..

Thanks to our class, I now know a very useful site that enables to see the evolution of a site "Archive" and I will probably use it in my studies and in my future job.

How do I learn about new concepts ?
There are many different ways to learn about new concepts. But most of the time when I don't understand something or want to know more about a particular concept, I always look for it on Internet. It is quite automatic. But to find good information on internet, you must know how to select good sources since the quality of the information found depends on them.
I also learn from others: teachers, other classmates, friends, radios, books, magazines,...

What other strategies do you use to answer the questions ?
Most of my search for answering the question was done through internet. But I also use the other course that I have attended to in Celsa; for example we had a class on "the introduction of information technologies in organizations" and they did a small presentation on "Google adventure". So it helps me a bit to answer the question on Google.
