Curated from the original article by Robin Good:
"Managing information overload requires tools that deliver “awareness” of topics and filter out irrelevant information will become indispensable.
The challenge is do to so without loosing the ability to make unexpected discoveries.
Content discovery engines provide several advantages over other tools.
These are:
1) Follow topics, not people: ...Content discovery engines help manage information overload because they are focused on topics, rather than people.
2) Go directly to the Source and avoid distractions: ...Social networks and publishing platforms are not a good place for information professionals to be productive. Such platforms want users to stay on their sites as long as possible.
3) Monitor one channel instead of twenty-five: The focus on specific topics that characterizes discovery engines allows users to stay informed in one single place.

"Jon Miller of News Corp may have predicted 2012 will see the "channelisation" of the web, but he really means a renewed focus on curation..."
"Channelisation implies that media corporations such as News Corp will be the ones controlling the playlist of content, but 2012 will see the role of such organisations fall back to providing content for others to turn into a wealth of different “channels” where the barrier to entry essentially falls to zero."

Google has always been reluctant to call Google+ a mere social network. Even though it looked like a Facebook clone at launch, the company has consistently said it was a bigger project that would permeate the entire company.

It's that time of year again: Many workers and managers are preparing for the dreaded performance review. While most companies continue to do them, a few are scrapping the practice altogether.
Feedback is necessary but a review every 6 months leaves a bitter taste for all concerned - the biannual performance appraisal is no longer fit for purpose and this article describes how some companies are bucking the accepted norms and doing it their way! I salute you all!

Testing 1 of these badboys, freakin awesome and cheap. Mix in some SSDs and wahey, screaming fast storage for all your requirements! 
"In the largest collaborative study of the brain to date, scientists using imaging technology at more than 100 centers worldwide have for the first time zeroed in on genes that they agree play a role in intelligence and memory. Scientists working to understand the biology of brain function — and especially those using brain imaging, a blunt tool — have been badly stalled. But the new work, involving more than 200 scientists, lays out a strategy for breaking the logjam. The findings appear in a series of papers published online Sunday in the journal Nature Genetics. “What’s really new here is this movement toward crowd-sourcing brain research,” said Paul Thompson, a professor of neurology at the University of California, Los Angeles, and senior author of one of the papers. “This is an example of social networking in science, and it gives us a power we have not had.”" Via Howard Rheingold

One of the easiest and most intuitive web conferencing systems I have seen. integrates directly with Outlook calendars & email and sets up an audio (via telephone) and screensharing (via PC) web conference facility. Accept the invite by clicking the link you have been mailed, complete a few details i.e. telephone number and the system calls you back! Schweet! The host only pays for the cost of the call. Easy multiway features and all parties can share screens.

I've recently been reviewing the various options for online email marketing utilities/services and this UK based system stands far above the rest. Fabulously simple but well designed interface leads you intuitively through the process. Great subscriber management, lots of professional looking templates with great output, extensive reporting and drill downs, sh*t hot support team and some fab SM integration. This is a solution that really works and is great value for money imho. Probably not there yet wrt large corporate multi-user environments as no real workflow etc. but there are workrounds and its in the dev pipeline so watch this space for updates.
Try it, you'll be pleasently surprised!
