L'écriture, mais sous forme d'infographisme, a pris une grande envergure ces derniers temps, aussi bien dans la presse écrite que dans les ressources en ligne. voici une excellente présentation sur le pourquoi et comment du journalisme des données et le "storytelling".

"Twitter's purchase of Summify, which delivered an email summary of interesting links from a user's social networks, shows Twitter is trying to get smarter about how it filters the flood of information users are exposed to."
Interesting purchase by a service, Twitter, that offers little in the way of curation.

This weekend I'm focusing on information, filtering and meaning overload and useful ways to manage and utilize it. Having said that, there's so much good information, insights and tips in this post, I have to digest it slowly.
Beth Kanter has written a great post on this subject, sharing the way she's dealing with it and the 44 people who commented on it have some great things to add to the discussion.
Intro:
This morning I learned a new word for information overload - content fried from a colleague at the Packard Foundation. It resonated.
I identify with this, here's what really caught my attention:
"The biggest difficulty I experience is the shifting from this forward flowing process of consuming, curating, and sense-making of content to learn versus to get something done".
****The latter requires a different type of attention and whole new set of information coping skills
Howard Rheingold calls this process managing your attention or “Infotention” and it is what he has been teaching in his courses.
I’ve been trying to curate content that offers ideas, tips, and resources to get past that ugly feeling of “content fried.” He curated the above mindmap.
Manage Your Attention, Not Just Your Time:
Don’t just create a to do list, lay it out on daily and weekly schedule, breaking down key tasks of the project to chunks.
****But consider the level of concentration and focus that each type of task or chunk requires – and schedule accordingly.
My question to you is:
What are your challenges? What ways are you drowning or prospering in this area? I'd love to hear from you.

Thanks Jan for curating this post. As I mentioned in Facebook, I have really been helped by Bregman's book, 18 MInutes! His techniques are fantastic. The book is written using stories to illustrate is concepts. I've been slowly trying to put them into practice. It takes discipline

The idea of the semantic web has been around for quite a few years. Many have coined it web 3.0 or view it as a large sub-component of web 3.0.
In short, the semantic web is a web of data. Via Antonino Militello

Let's be grown up about this. Pinterest is an app for sharing lists of scrumptious-looking stuff. It's not for girls or guys, it's for people who like looking at things. On Pinterest, you have fine-grained control over what pins appear in your feed. In fact, for all Google's efforts to figure out how to control unwanted social stuff with Circles, I daresay they got it backwards. Pinterest is the reverse of Google+ circles, and it's better for users. Via The New Company, ABroaderView

CanvasDropr provides a virtually infinite online canvas on which you and your friends / contacts can easily add, position, resize and rotate photos and video clips at will.
From the official site: "The center of the CanvasDropr idea is to work and collaborate on a so-called "Canvas".
The canvas can be shared by an unlimited amount of people, and changes made in the canvas are updated real-time in every user’s canvas.
Users can easily drag and drop new images directly from their desktop onto the canvas."
CanvasDrops allows you to text chat in real-time with other "collaborators" you have invited as well as to set permissions for what "public" users can edit or modify on a "public canvas.
It is possible to place photos and video clips coming from Facebook, YouTube, Flickr and Picasa or to import one simply by providing its URL.
The final canvas can be shared on FB or Twitter, downloaded as an "image" or a .zip file containing all of its images and can also be "embedded" on any site or blog.
The service is free to use.
