With the current trend, almost everyday, there is a new- amazing - webbased - socialtool - out - there - that - is - going - to - change - everything - we - know. While this might or might not be true, most of us don’t have time to actually try/learn/experience with such new tools and reap the benefits (if any). Too many interesting things and too little time!
It seems that the next Oreilly Emergent Technologies conference wont be about emergent technologies as such but about how (current) emergent technologies are actually useful and how they could actually improve our productivity.
“This year's challenge is not about generating digital data--we have more than enough already. It's time to do something with that data. As organic creatures with fallible and finite perception systems, complex desires, and an ever-decreasing amount of time, how do we visualize the data, filter it, remix it, and access it in ways meaningful to us? The opportunity created by the massive data web is one of social good, of personal benefit, and of business advantage.”
