Este articulo me impresionó porque nunca me habia planteado el infierno que debe ser que te quiten informacion sobre uno mismo que te perjudica y que puede no ser cierta.

Algo parecido comenta El País: "Google ha recibido ya más de 70.000 peticiones de internautas para retirar enlaces que les afectan en aplicación del derecho al olvido reconocido por el Tribunal de Justicia de la UE de y ha comenzado a enviar notificaciones a páginas web para informarles de que va a dejar de mostrar en sus resultados determinados enlaces. El pasado 30 de mayo publicó un formulario para que los usuarios europeos pudieran solicitar la eliminación de los resultados del buscador ligados a sus nombres. Según anunció entonces Google, cada petición sería analizada de forma individual. La británica BBC ha sido la primera en encontrarse con un aviso de Google, anunciando que dejará de indexar un post escrito en 2007 en el blog Peston Picks, del periodista Robert Peston, sobre un antiguo jefe de inversiones de Merrill Lynch. Peston, autor de la pieza, ha escrito otro artículo en el que muestra su malestar contra la sentencia, que obliga a Google a borrar datos "insuficientes, irrelevantes o que ya no son relevantes" cuando un particular lo solicite. El periodista argumenta que el artículo sobre Stan O'Neal, exdirector de la firma de inversión, mantiene interés y no merece desaparecer: "Un financiero de alto nivel, que sigue en el espectro público y que ha tenido un papel relevante en una de las peores crisis financieras que se recuerdan tiene que aparecer en los resultados". En su opinión esta medida servirá para acotar la libertad de expresión." http://tecnologia.elpais.com/tecnologia/2014/07/03/actualidad/1404405567_813834.html

Google has revealed a project underway at the called The Physical Web to provide "interaction on demand" so that people can walk up and use any smart devices without the need for intervening mobile apps. This would make it possible for users to simply walk up to a bus stop and receive the time until the next arriving bus, without any additional software needed. An accepted open standard is probably some years away, but the promise of an Internet of Things that doesn't require a centralised software hub is appealing, since it democratises control over the system.

Thinking of creating a website? Google Sites is a free and easy way to create and share webpages.

Best way for creating site for progect, for self-publishing, etc. You my change the domane name. Site has simple design, but you can integrate all google tools on web-page: docs, images, videos and other. I like this service, because you get free and simple CRM and google analysis tool.

Suggested in the Google+ community (Fabrizo & others), this is an excellent platform for open online collaboration and learning.

Es cierto es una excelente plataforma que utilizo para informarme acerca de mi carrera y colaborar con colegas

You can create accout and add your articles - one of the tools for Self-Archiving.

Great facility by Google.

I use Google as little as possible simply because they`re driven by profit,and are capitalistic and predatory by nature. Not a good match for education.

Google responds to an attack by the chief executive of News Corp, arguing it is tough on piracy and faces stiff competition.

Interesting read.

yes it is interesting thank you

It´s been great fun recieving so many comments and I do feel that I am lerning new tools as you come with your recommendations for creating a Course Resource Library - a place where we can make a list of useful links, which should be categorised so that all of us can find the resources we need when we need them. I have created a Google Drive Spreadsheet to which everyone can contribute and use. Everyone with the link can view and edit. Lets make this library now and keep looking for more attractive ways to present it. Here it goes:

Google inicia en Madrid una serie de reuniones públicas en las que debatirá con expertos y ciudadanos los pormenores del derecho al olvido. El pasado mayo, el Tribunal de Justicia de la Unión Europea (TJUE) dictaminó que los motores de búsqueda están obligados a retirar enlaces a información personal si esta perjudica la reputación de un usuario y ya no es relevante.

"Dave, stop. Stop, will you? Stop, Dave. Will you stop, Dave?" So the supercomputer HAL pleads with the implacable astronaut Dave Bowman in a famous and weirdly poignant scene toward the end of Stanley Kubrick's 2001: A Space Odyssey .

I have gathered a large list of on-going citizen science projects and related tools which, I am sure, will benefit everybody interested in getting involved with hands-on science. Some of the projects in my list were mentioned in Clarkes' video lecture - I realize that some people were looking for references to those.

The list is now here as well: https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B3os4Z9kDO9UeFBMYTBPR0tqMW8/edit

Gracias por tu contribución. I liked it so much because of "Marine LitterWatch" because it is a really big problem in Mexico, it can be applied by government to clean the populated beaches, el Cañón del Sumidero or Sumidero Canyon, and to sensibilize people. Additional to that, the app can be used in big cities to decide where to colocate new tanks of rubbish.

More than 70 Apple iPhone users in the UK have joined a landmark privacy action against Google over the way it tracked their online habits, and another 30 have expressed interest, lawyers said on Tuesday.

"This paper provides a brief overview of the ideas and principles underlying the connected learning movement, highlighting examples of how libraries are boosting 21st century learning and promoting community development by partnering with a range of organisations and individuals to incorporate connected opportunities into their programmes"

Thanks Kevin for sharing this.

El lado oscuro de las bibliotecas: "¿Quieren leer? Pues a pagar" Es un delirio: cuando tomemos prestado un libro de una biblioteca será preciso pagar un canon http://cultura.elpais.com/cultura/2014/08/27/babelia/1409137321_870906.html

No todos están de acuerdo con el "Fair Use", algunos creen que deben cobrar por todo el contenido en la red. .. Don Rupert Murdoch no está de acuerdo con la idea del "fair use" y agregó que muchas veces es usado como pretexto para robar noticias ...

Qué opináis vosotros de este articulo?

Estoy de acuerdo en que el 'periodismo ciudadano' no va desplazar al periodismo profesional, por que carece de un "agente regulador" que revise/edite/controle el contenido 'investigado' y compartido.

Yo creo que el periodismo profesional debería hacer un giro hacia el análisis en profundidad de lo que está ocurriendo; hacer previsiones, estudios de factores que nos han traído hasta la situación actual, qué opciones hay, quién participa en la toma de decisiones... El periodismo ciudadano cubre los sucesos de manera puntual, el aquí y ahora, de una forma eficiente e inmediata. Es tarea de los periodistas analizar toda esa información y obtener conclusiones de la marcha de los acontecimientos. Si se limitan a seguir informando de sucesos puntuales, ¿quién querrá financiar una actividad que ya hace el ciudadano por propia iniciativa?

Originally shared by Inez in the course Google Community. From the article, by Morozov: "For all its utopianism and scientism, its algedonic meters and hand-drawn graphs, Project Cybersyn got some aspects of its politics right: it started with the needs of the citizens and went from there. The problem with today's digital utopianism is that it typically starts with a PowerPoint slide in a venture capitalist's pitch deck."
