"The Nuclear Regulatory Commission Friday completed the restoration of public access to an additional 70,000 documents through its on-line library, ADAMS, after conducting a security-sensitivity review. Members of the public are now able to access these documents, involving administrative, contractual, research, and other documents not related to a specific licensee, which were removed from the public library on Oct. 25 of last year. The documents may be viewed and retrieved through the NRC's Web-based ADAMS at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams/web-based.html or by using CITRIX software at http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/adams/citrix-based.html. Using CITRIX allows earlier access, by perhaps a day, but requires downloading the appropriate software."

The staff report, 'Peer-to-Peer File-Sharing Technology: Consumer Protection and Competition Issues,' analyzes the consumer protection, competition, and intellectual property issues that were discussed at the FTC's December 2004 workshop on P2P file sharing. The report recommends that industry and government take steps so that consumers receive the many benefits from this technology while avoiding the risks that it creates."

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.

Information overload: fact, fantasy or filter failure?
Wednesday, 23rd May 2012
