London--Portals
Source:
Prototype/Pilot Version, Your London
From Kable's Government Computing, "The UK capital's e-government agency is offering directions to the nearest public toilet, among other features, on its prototype e-services portal. A prototype of London's long awaited e-services portal is soon to be tested with users, according to the capital's e-government agency. The portal, known as Your London, is now accessible in a pilot version but has not yet been publicly unveiled. The pilot site has a section offering advice for business, information for tourists and a "find your nearest" search engine. The system provides a map with directions to the nearest cash machine, police station, hospital and public toilet."

Improved, New Wrinkle for Federal Judges Biographical Database
"A valuable tool for anyone doing research about the nation's federal judges, past and present, is the Federal Judges Biographical Database. Maintained by the Federal Judicial Center, the database provides information about all judges who have served on the U.S. District Courts, the U.S. Courts of Appeals, the Supreme Court, and other life-tenured courts since 1789. One problem had been trying to distinguish between current and past judges. That problem was addressed in a new research question added in February 2005: Users now can [limit?] their query to sitting judges."

Thursday, 24th May 2012

Recently I have found myself cooing over visualisation maps (and heat maps) of health and well being resources. The content rich data is overlayed with mapping technologies, and some interesting themes and patterns are emerging.


Click to view the article The fallacy of information overload
Wednesday, 23rd May 2012

A lot of the talk around social media in the last year has been around information overload. Social media has provided us with new and exciting ways to create content. But it has also meant learning new ways to manage and engage with social media tools. Are we teetering on the edge of an information overload precipice?


Click to view the article Information overload: fact, fantasy or filter failure?
Wednesday, 23rd May 2012

Information overload is a figment of your imagination. Or a failure of your filter. Or a symptom of your technological submissiveness. Depends on who you ask.


Click to view the article Newsdesk: tracking millions of pieces of information a day
Tuesday, 22nd May 2012

What if you had to sort through 3.5 million articles and social media posts a day and try to pull out the most relevant items for your organisation? What if you then had to cobble it all together into something readable for your top groups and executives in your organisation?
