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
From blogs.cisco.com - December 4, 2012 4:05 AM
"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."

"I’m not really that smart. I just know people who are. One of the wisest things that we librarians can do is to collaborate with other smart librarians who love to share. For example, I have a strong personal learning network (PLN) that starts on Twitter and even includes a monthly face-to-face gathering. My PLN provides me with lots of really good ideas, answers questions, and supports my work. It is through these resources that I have gathered a huge technology toolbox, assessment strategies, promotional ideas, and a ton of worthwhile resources that I can pass on to my teachers."
