Libraries are increasingly the places in which culture is produced, collected and disseminated. The Ambient Exchange designed by Synthetiques & minus Architecture studio {MAS} promotes a culture of collaboration, creative inquiry and community engagement through provision of functional and exuberant spaces that engage the strong social and craft-oriented traditions of the Finnish built environment.
Karen du Toit's insight:

Truly inspiring concept and use of space for the community in a library!

Internet of Everything: It’s the Connections that Matter - by Dave Evans, via @CiscoSystems

Internet of Everything: It’s the Connections that Matter - by Dave Evans, via @CiscoSystems | The Information Professional | Scoop.it

"It is important to understand that the real value of the Internet of Everything (IoE) lies in both the number and value of connections."

YouTube video: http://youtu.be/bVNJfUOBzJE

The conversation: #IoE and #InternetofEverything

[...] even if only a fraction of things connect to other things, the connections among them grow exponentially.

So, while it’s fun to play with the numbers, it is clear that the most important aspect of IoE is the value that results from making intelligent and relevant connections to give people and machines the information needed to make better decisions."
