The main differences in the types of information
| A database | The Web |
- Secondary information
- Often abstracted
- Well classified according to subject
- Unless it is 'news' it appears after it has already appeared in the 'public domain'
| - Primary information
- Probably not abstracted
- Probably not well classified
- Likely to be the first appearance of this information anywhere e.g. the Starr Report
