You used to come to me for all sorts of information and knowledge before the internet was born
I come in variety of colors and am found almost year round. My house is tall and my only fear is the cold. What am I?

I make things short but I am pretty long myself
I hop around and deliver eggs at Easter.
A little house full of meat, no door to go in and eat.
