I personally don't have a struggle with information overload; finding a topic to narrow in on comes relatively easy to me. I can definitely relate, however, that having excessive amounts of information can really disrupt organization, especially if multiple types of resources are being used. I've found that staying in very similar websites to each other helps me not get sidetracked with more information than I need.
