Going medieval - relationships and the digital age

hile centuries apart, the 21st century needs to go a little 'medieval'. Our ancestors had a geographic issue with the sharing of knowledge - with many never knowing what lay beyond the next village. Our situation is we know too much - with the digital age consuming attention and time, who can keep up?
Fortunately there's a solution we used back then, and it's just as good today - trusted relationships.

If you wanted to know about where to go and what was the best time to plant crops, or who the best blacksmith was you asked your neighbour.

No different today - excepting your digital neighbour may be 2000 miles away. Isn't it true that we need to rely even more on others to help us find the gold amongst the dirt?
  
Identify the people who lead you to gold and keep your attention there.
