Can you explain the difference between Information Management, Information Systems and Information Technology?
I am currently revising for exams and am having problems accounting for real differences. I Summis that information technology refers to equipment used to facilitate the IS / IM, but especially not understand the fundamental difference between IS / IM. If you can help that would be great. Thank you.

In general the terms are used interchangably. IT being the umbrella term most often used to describe all facets of computer based work. Information systems tends to be used a bit more for old mainframe big iron type setups that have a large central core of functionality. Information management is possibly used more often in data warehousing but I’ve not seen any strong trend towards that.
