With growing reliance on the Internet as a primary source of input into nearly every type of decision, individuals must find ways to cope with the overwhelming quantity and variety of information accessible to them. Unfortunately, while technology increases the availability of information by facilitating both sharing and retrieval, it does not yet offer clear assistance for integrating this information into coherent preferences. Furthermore, the weighting of disparate information content is subject to the inherent decision-making biases that people have been shown to exhibit in many other contexts, and reliance on simplifying heuristics may even be exacerbated in online environments where distillation of meaning from abundant or conflicting information is especially difficult.
