Abstract
21. yüzyıla doğru teknolojinin hızla gelişmesi yeni bilgi kaynaklarının ortaya çıkmasını sağlayarak, bireylerin ihtiyaç duyduklarından daha fazla bilgiye erişmelerine olanak sağlamıştır. Bilişim çağı olarak nitelendirdiğimiz bu dönem, bilgiye olan açlığımızı fazlasıyla doyurmaya yetmiş, aşırı bilgi yüklemesi sebebiyle çeşitli kaynakların ortaya çıkmasına neden olmuştur. Teknolojinin gelişmesi ile ortaya çıkan önemli kavramların başında yer alan internet, günümüzde bireylerin günlük hayatlarının vazgeçilmez bir parçası olmuştur. İnternetin dijital dünyaya sunmuş olduğu olanaklar, bireyleri kontrol edilemeyen bir bilgi alışverişine sürükleyerek bilgi kaynaklarının dijital platformda yayılmasını sağlamış ve bilgi kirliliğinin oluşmasına sebep olmuştur. Bilgi kirliliğinin artmasıyla birlikte infobezite kavramı ortaya çıkmıştır. İnfobezite kavramı, bireylerin günlük hayatlarında alması gerekenden daha fazla bilgiye maruz kalmasını ve bilgi obezliğinin olumsuz etkilerini anlatmak için kullanılmaya başlamıştır. Bilişim çağında ortaya çıkan Web 2.0 teknolojileri ve akıllı telefonlar da bilginin değişik boyutlarına her an erişilmesini sağladığından adeta bilgi istilasının oluşumuna zemin hazırlamıştır. Yaşadığımız bu çağda bireylerin üzerindeki etkisi tartışılmaz olan infobezite kavramı bu açıdan önemlidir. İnfobezitenin görece yeni bir kavram olması ve yeterince çalışılmamış olması noktasından hareketle bu çalışmanın amacı, infobezite kavramının derinlemesine incelenip, infobezite kavramı hakkında çeşitli görüşler ve yapılmış araştırmalara yer vererek literatüre katkı sağlamaktır.

Abstract
The rapid development of technology during the 21st century enabled new information sources to emerge, allowing individuals to access more information than they needed. This period, which we describe as the information age, has been enough to over saturate our hunger for knowledge, and caused the emergence of various new technologies in order to manage the overloaded information. Internet, which is one of the important concepts emerging with the development of technology, has become an indispensable part of individuals daily lives today. The opportunities offered by the internet to the digital world have dragged individuals into an uncontrollable exchange of information, enabling the spread of information resources on the digital platform and causing information pollution. With the increase of information pollution, the concept of infobesity has emerged. The concept of infobesity has begun to be used to explain the exposure of individuals to more information than they should get in their daily lives and the negative effects of information obesity. Web 2.0 technologies and smart phones emerging in the information age have provided the access to different dimensions of the information at any time, thus paving the way for the formation of an information invasion. In this age, the existince infobesity, of which impact on individuals is indisputable, is important in this respect. The purpose of this study is to contribute to the literature by including various opinions and researches about the concept of infobesity, considering that the infobesity concept is a relatively new concept and not studied enough.
