Depends on where "there" is. If it's specific place, the latter. If it means just generally available, the former. -- nm - mara, jogger Jul 23, 10:25
Disperse the information in such a manner that it is made available to interested parties in a shorter proximity of time relative to the current time. -- nm - Dano Jul 23, 10:21 5
- By brother and I are arguing about which of __________ [quicker / more quickly] is grammaticality correct. - ty97 Jul 23, 10:24 1
  - Oh, geez, completely missed that. "More quickly" for written communication. "Quicker" is okay for informal speech, but not actually correct. -- nm - mara, jogger Jul 23, 10:28
- needs a "synergy" or something. -- nm - TFox Jul 23, 10:23

Two different meanings. To me, "out there" means simply to publish something, while the latter implies a specific recipient. -- nm - con_carne Jul 23, 10:19 5
- presume 'out there' is either in both or not in both. (it is , in fact, relating to publishing information) -- nm - ty97 Jul 23, 10:20 4
  - The former then, but both are fine. - con_carne Jul 23, 10:25 3
    - adjectives, I mean -- nm - con_carne Jul 23, 10:30 1
      - Quick(ly) is an adverb in this usage. (nm) - musubi, adorable Jul 23, 10:33
    - (quick is not a verb, dang) -- nm - con_carne Jul 23, 10:29
The latter. But "get info thr fstr" might be more appropriate. (nm) - musubi, adorable Jul 23, 10:19

- agreed. or, "Rapidly distribute the information" -- nm - Beryllium Jul 23, 10:18 3
  - disseminate! -- nm - Strongbad Jul 23, 10:23 1
    - ah! Perfect. That was the one that was on the tip of my tongue, but I couldn't nail it down. -- nm - Beryllium Jul 23, 10:30
  - (Heh ... it's probably a good thing that my speciality is not writing.) -nm - Beryllium Jul 23, 10:18
