Abstract
We observe that information is the life force through which we interact with our environment. The dynamic state of the world is maintained by information management. These observations motivated us to develop the concept of fully connected information space which we introduce in this paper. We discuss its structure and properties and present our research work and contributions for its maintenance. We also speculate the future of this information space and our mode of interaction with it.
