GeoLondon | All Geo, All London - 2 views

  •  
    Gary Gale writes "If you live in or visit London regularly (that's London UK by the way) and have an interest in maps, in location, in geo, in geography or in a combination of any of the above then you need geolondon.org. Put together by Andrew Larcombe of the British Computer Society's Geospatial SG, geolondon.org pulls in and aggregates the RSS feeds from the Royal Geographical Society and various other geo event feeds including those from Upcoming.org. You'd be surprised at how many geo-events are going on in this city; I was and I live here."

  • Formal logic isn’t systematically taught in our North American educational system, except to students of philosophy or the history of science.

  • Deductive logic — the logic of what must be — reasons from the general to the specific. If the general rule is that all crows are black, and I see a brown bird, I can declare deductively that this bird is not a crow.
  • Inductive logic — the logic of what is operative — reasons from the specific to the general. If I study sales per square foot across a thousand stores and find a pattern that suggests stores in small towns generate significantly higher sales per square foot than stores in cities, I can inductively declare that small towns are my more valuable market
  • Whether they realize it or not, designers live in Peirce’s world of abduction
  • Dewey began to explore the limits of formal declarative logic — that is, inductive and deductive reasoning.

City Brights: Howard Rheingold : Twitter Literacy (I refuse to make up a Twittery name ... - 0 views

  •  
    If you think "literacy" is too fancy, then just remember to use the word "social" in reasonable proximity to your mention of encoding and decoding skills needed in the mobile and multimedia milieu. It's not just about knowing how. It's about knowing how and knowing who and knowing who knows who knows what.
