There is a sea of data, but where is the information?

My tryst with Google was anything but confusing.

Google returned 8,510,000 results for the keyword "travel planner". Most of them were a snapsot of the destination I am supposed to reach at the end of My Journey.

Nevertheless I became smarter and tried "how to build a travel planner" which resulted in 3,320,000 results.

I now realised that Google is not like my Professor to answer my questions but more like my Librarian who can point me to sources of information.

So you get a sea of data but what about the information?

Did somebody say Information is Power?

Information is somewhat similar to Knowledge and hence the earlier statement is justified.
