Usually our brain stores this new information and synthesize it with the other available information already in our memory. The brain will try to connect it to as many information as it can. Some associations may be crazy or weird but some associations with other experiences will prove something important that might be connected to it. Our brain is the best computer and Internet access, if only we know how to utilize all its powers and capabilities.

Neuroscientists know that neuronal (the neurons are the "logic"cells) changes occur instantaneously and over the long term when we learn something new.
To permanently retain what we learn we often need to repeat the learning sequence, ie., riding the bicycle, over and over again. The neurons are sprouting new microscopic branches in the brain to communicate in new ways with neighbouring neurons. These new branches are called "dendrites". This repeating process of learning as it relates to our brain cells is called "long-term potentiation," or LTP.
Also, contrary to once popular belief, neuroscientists know that the human brain is capable of growing and regenerating new brain cells over its lifetime. The efficiency of this process is much slower in later adulthood compared to childhood, which is probably why children learn much faster than older adults. It has been hypothesized that active learning over a lifetime maintains the efficiency of this process, so keep reading!

Your RAM is taxed a little more.
That's why a lot of older people have a harder time remembering things-- all the years of information crammed in the head & swirling around, without having a memory increase.
