Dear Klaus, As you may imagine, I'm familiar with the search engine and solutions. Thanks for the links you have mentioned. Regarding BI solutions – they are mostly not related to CI but will have to be interrelated to CI solutions in the future. I…

OK, Avner, you are right this discussion has taken on too many directions, so let me try again At BTH in Sweden we basically run two technology-intensive courses related to CI: 1. the first is more related towards police/military/tax/customs intel…

What is RSS and Why Should I Care?

For me, RSS is second only to search on my list of the most useful web applications.

RSS is neither difficult nor particularly "high tech" once you wrap your head around the basic concept of what it does. RSS provides a visually easy way to scan a lot of different websites as they update. This increase… Continue

It's a great platform - we use it for my neighborhood association to give private recommendations for contractors, which restaurants to hit or avoid, post pictures of lost cats...that sort of thing.

Walter, I can answer this one. Ok, first "big data" players usually means HP, Oracle, SAP, IBM. These firms are extraordinarily good at handling structured data (ie numbers) in relational databases, but they don't deal well with unstructured data,…

Hey Eric, Very nice, I really like your critical dissection of the author's convoluted and ultimately flawed, thought process which you laid out very articulately. Precisely right, what exactly is the difference here? The issue of direct vs indirec…
