When reading Shelby's blog about Google being the new classroom it reminded me of an article that relates completely to that. Unfortunately according to studies conducted by numerous people, even if theres loads of information on each subject, there is too many distractions to keep yourself from remembering.
Here is the link to the article:

Now I can't say that sites like wikipedia, which are mostly text only, and whos images are in places that are not as distracting, and no ads, I can give you an example of a website that incorporates every problem that is mentioned in the article.
Heres the link with the example:

Also look at the link that Spencer posted in his blog titled "Video Game Industry Shake-Up" for an even better example.
