One of the biggest challenges of knowledge work is its lack of visibility. Getting a clear picture of what’s going on in a collection of minds, including your own, is much more difficult than seeing the visible progress of constructing a house or assembling a physical product. And when you can’t see what you’re building together as a company, it takes extra time, effort, and work to manage problems, progress, and processes. So how do you make the invisible visible?

A group of French researchers believe that the sensors and transmitters we wear will route and relay data, not just collect it. We won’t just be connected to the network. We’ll be the network.

How often have you checked your social media accounts today? Feeling unplugged is a problem for many people. This infographic from mylife.com illustrates how people are addicted to social media, and what they rather do than give up their Internet lifeline. Two out of three people are afraid they’re missing something important on email, Facebook, Twitter, or other accounts. In the same survey, three out of five people wished there was a solution to monitor their various communication options. This infographic is based on the survey by Harris, and conveys a growing trend—social media overload...

Visualization has been married to Architecture since the beginning of time. (Let's say we start the courtship at 15000 BC in the Paleolithic Era.) And in any relationship, communication is the key to success. At each step of the architectural process – planning, design, and construction – visualizations provide a look into the future at the envisioned physical structure (or place). Over centuries, architects’ mania for perfection has demanded more realistic reflections of their imaginations, and technology has progressed to make these dreams come true. Whether engraved, sketched, painted, mini-modeled, or rendered, the more detailed the visualization, the clearer the communication.

Le web est devenu l'un des principaux vecteurs de communication des institutions publiques. Quels sont les types de contentieux qui apparaissent, en particulier pour les structures publiques ?

Le père de la synergologie (marque déposée) Philippe Turchet n'hésite pas dans une de ses interventions à déclarer que "le langage du corps peut être à la base de 100% de la communication".
Absolutely fascinating! Intro: In 2008 the number of devices connected to the Internet surpassed the number of people connected, and in 2020 there will be 50 billion things connected, 7 times the world’s population, according to Dave Evans of Cisco. The infographic below highlights some of the key features of the Internet of things, including the pace of growth, how external data can be aggregated so that your alarm clocks, cars, and coffee makers make decisions to fit with your schedule, and that some cameras and computers are now just a cubic millimeter. An amazing statistic is that by end of 2011, 20 typical households will generate more Internet traffic than the entire Internet in 2008. That is slightly unbelievable, and I would like to know how they define ‘typical’ and what data is generated for Internet communication. However it is important to recognize that the Internet of things is one of the most important ways to understand our connected future. Pervasive connectivity, and the amazing things we will be able to do with that, will shape our lives. http://rossdawsonblog.com/weblog/archives/2011/09/the-internet-of-things-will-dwarf-the-internet-of-people.html

I am constantly reminded of the importance of communicating effectively. And I am repeatedly convinced that a simple message delivered in a simple way is most ("Communicating Knowledge Management (KM) to Busy Lawyers" by @LawyerKM Connections Are the Key… My favorite (and primary) way to communicate KM to lawyers — and the representation in the KM card, above — is to speak in terms of connections. It’s about “connecting people with people, connecting people with knowledge and information, and the processes, procedures, and technologies required to make those connections.” I like this approach because it is broad, yet meaningful. It allows me to talk about various aspects of KM from culture to technology, without eyes glazing over. I carry the KM cards with me at work (and elsewhere). When I need to explain KM to someone, I talk about connections. After my elevator speech, I hand them a card as a take-away mnemonic. “Here’s an easy way to remember what we do,” I say, “the KM department’s email address is on the back.” The more “complex” definitions of KM are fine when talking to people in KM circles and getting into the depths of knowledge management, but when talking to busy lawyers, spouting some convoluted, jargon-bloated, “nonsense” is the surest way to lose their attention. Lawyers are no strangers to jargon. They know it — and will reject it (and you) — the second they hear it.

Google vient de mettre en ligne un guide en français, réunissant de nombreux conseils notamment destinés à aider les webmasters et SEO débutants.
At the Visualized conference on November 9th, Neil Halloran posed an interesting question: Can DataViz lead to a data savvy society in the same way that the printing press lead to a literate one? One that is prepared to make tough decisions on complex issues? Neil Halloran thinks so. That’s why he created VisualBudget.org to cut through hyperbole surrounding the what may be the most frequently misunderstood and pressing issue facing Americans today, our massive $16 trillion dollar deficit. But how is a modern citizen supposed to make an informed decision on issues of tremendous scope and complexity, such as the fiscal cliff or the growing budget deficit without falling back on sound bites and punditry? Neil Halloran’s solution is to tell a story. Rather than simply presenting a static infographic or a set of tabular data on federal receipts and expenditures, VisualBudget.org takes you on a interactive tour...

Swabr allows practioners to create their own private microblogging system that only people they authorize can join. Swabr is like Twitter except it is closed off to everyone except those people you really want to interact with. Some learning providers are using Swabr as a bulletin board; it could also be used by practitioners and/or learners to create discussion groups and study groups.

Réfléchir à notre monde de communication, ce n’est pas picorer en permanence sur la Toile, écouter les analyses d’experts en communication ( qui se trompent souvent ), ou suivre les liens qu’on vous transmet ( par tweeter, facebook, ..).C’est ce qui en fait sa richesse. Son intemporalité. En permanence, il y a matière à réfléchir, à confronter ses convictions, ses idées. Dans un monde aussi imprégné que l’information, sous toutes ses formes, c’est un métier passionnant que de s’intéresser à ce domaine.

Dès l’expansion de l’utilisation des ordinateurs personnels dans les foyers et les écoles, les discussions sur l’intervention des technologies de la communication dans l’éducation explorent des avantages et des limites. D’un côté, il y a le débat sur la « bonne » utilisation des TICs à l’école, ou dans l’éducation, surtout en ce qui concerne les ordinateurs et les logiciels éducatifs. De l’autre, l’accès à l’information à travers internet et les possibilités d’apprentissage avec les réseaux sociaux du Web 2.0 fait aussi des points de discussion. En tant qu’apprentie de la recherche en éducation, je me demande aussi qu’est-ce qu’on apprend sur le monde et sur nous à travers nos entourages, nos écoles formelles, nos média ? Est-ce que le 2.0 pourrait-il être une nouvelle fenêtre pour la compréhension des autres ?
