New Jersey: New Database Offers Salary, Pension Info & Other Database Universe Resources

New Jersey: Database offers salary, pension info (via Courier News)

From the article:

With more than 2,400 municipalities, agencies, authorities, school districts and other government bodies, there is little wonder that New Jersey spent nearly $23 billion last year to pay its 450,000 public servants.

Their salaries range from the base minimum to more than $500,000. Until today, though, you had no way of finding out quickly and anonymously what a public employee was paid.

As part of the Courier News' mission to provide public information to residents, the newspaper has posted on its data records Web site, www.c-n.com/DataUniverse, nearly all employees who draw a paycheck from the government.

Other Databases Available at Data Universe:
+ Property ownership records throughout New Jersey, searchable by name or address.
+ Detailed town-by-town crime statistics since 1996.
+ A database of New Jersey state government employees, searchable by name, salary or department.
+ Campaign contribution records for state races and PACs, searchable by name, zip code or candidate.
+ Public school teacher and administrator salaries and job experience.
+ Links to New Jersey prison inmates, past and present, and the state's sex offender Internet registery.
+ Links to consumer information sites, such as a database of doctors who have been disciplined, and charity financial information.

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?
