Briefs: Google Developer Day to Be Webcast; Create Your Own Newsletters in Factiva.com

+ TextMap Adds World News Analysis and Animations
Our second mention of this very interesting research tool on ResourceShelf.

TextMap tracks references to people, places, and things appearing in news text, so as to identify meaningful relationships between them. TextMap monitors the state of the world by analyzing both the temporal and spatial distribution of these entities. We currently analyze over 1000 domestic and international news sources every day. TextMap uses natural language processing techniques to identify entity references and a variety of statistical techniques to analyze the juxtapositions between them.
