Summary:
THE BRAND NEW York Times bestseller by Famous Small Television Personality John Hodgman-The Daily Show’s ‘Resident Expert’ and the ‘PC’ in the iconic Apple ads-picks up exactly where his first book left off. Actually, ‘the new volume is in every method a continuation of Regions of My Expertise, except in the ways it’s clearly superior.’ (The Onion AV Membership)
In 2005, John Hodgman released his first compendium of Complete World Knowledge, The Areas of My Knowledge, a handy level of fake trivia and made-up about More Information Than You Require facts. Hodgmania was created. Virtually over night, John Hodgman was whisked from tweedy obscurity towards the high ether of small superstar. And from his strange new vantage stage being a Famous Small Television Personality, Hodgman realized that there surely is some globe knowledge yet to become documented. And so he returned to wherever he had left off-namely, web page 256 of the paperback edition of The Regions of My Expertise. And he brought with him: MORE INFO THAN YOU NEED. Which, naturally, begins on page 257. Like its forerunner, MORE INFO Than You Require consists of brief content articles, overlong lists, frighteningly complicated graphs, and beguiling narratives on new and familiar themes such as:

THE NEAR FUTURE (because they state there is still some left)
MOLE-MEN (including a summary of 700 Mole-man titles)
GAMBLING, THE SPORT FROM THE ATHSMATIC MAN (including hermit crab racing)
CRYPTOGEOGRAPHY (including Canada)
HOW TO BE CONSIDERED A FAMOUS Small TELEVISION Character (Hint: Continue television)
