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."

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."
