It seems to me that asking someone in your social network would be less trouble than going out and getting a book on the subject, especially if it's something that's commonly known.
Depends. A real life person can help you determine what to prioritize learning (what resources to look at first, which parts of which resources to pay the most attention to) in a way that books generally don't. Also, in several subjects, the best resources are not necessarily books.
I think you misread my comment. I was also saying asking a person can be better than reading a book.
Oops. Yes, I read "less" as "more" somehow.
