Study shows that one 'super-corporation' pulls the strings of the global economy | Mail... - 0 views

  •  
    A University of Zurich study 'proves' that a small group of companies - mainly banks - wields huge power over the global economy. The study is the first to look at all 43,060 transnational corporations and the web of ownership between them - and created a 'map' of 1,318 companies at the heart of the global economy. The study found that 147 companies formed a 'super entity' within this, controlling 40 per cent of its  wealth. All own part or all of one another. Most are banks - the top 20 includes Barclays and Goldman Sachs. But the close connections mean that the network could be vulnerable to collapse

News Corpse » Study Confirms That Fox News Makes You Stupid: - 0 views

  •  
    Yet another study has been released that proves that watching Fox News is detrimental to your intelligence. World Public Opinion, a project managed by the Program on International Policy Attitudes at the University of Maryland, conducted a survey of American voters that shows that Fox News viewers are significantly more misinformed than consumers of news from other sources. What's more, the study shows that greater exposure to Fox News increases misinformation.

    Studie die besagt, Netz-Neutralität hätte negative ökonomische Effekte. Das in WIRED-Magazin zu lesen ist traurig. FUD? Gegenargumente, die wesentlich schwieriger aufzustellen sind (weil zwinged komplexere modelle dahinter) wären gefragt!!!!

Social Networking Now More Popular on Mobile than Desktop - 0 views

  •  
    A recent study from Ruder Finn revealed that Americans are spending nearly three hours per day on their mobile phones. And what are they doing there? Educating themselves, conducting business, managing finances, instant messaging, emailing? All of the above, as it turns out, and then some. But perhaps the most interesting finding from the new data is the fact that more people are using the mobile web to socialize (91%) compared to the 79% of desktop users who do the same. http://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/new-study-shows-intent-behind-mobile-internet-use-84016487.html

(Un)digitales Deutschland | politik-digital.de - 0 views

  • Die Studie „Digitale Gesellschaft in Deutschland – Sechs Nutzertypen im Vergleich“ zeigt: Die deutsche Bevölkerung ist geteilt in diejenigen, die noch nicht in der digitalen Gesellschaft angekommen sind und die sogenannten digitalen Souveränen. Überraschend erscheint, dass nur ca. 26 Prozent zu den souveränen Nutzern gezählt werden. Drei Viertel der Bevölkerung lebten dagegen immer noch weitestgehend undigital. Für die Studie, die den seit 2001 jährlich erscheinenden (N)Onliner-Atlas ergänzen soll, befragte TNS Infratest deutschlandweit 1014 Personen.

Study links online transparency efforts, trust in government - Nextgov - 0 views

  • The first-ever quantitative assessment of online open government efforts has concluded that the perceived transparency of federal Web sites drives trust in government.
  • The longstanding approach to quantifying transparency has been, "well let's measure how much data they put out there," said Larry Freed, ForeSee Results' president and chief executive officer. "To me, that's not measuring transparency. That may be measuring confusion."
  • "If citizens find e-government transparent, they are more likely to return to the site, recommend it, and use it instead of a more costly channel," the study found. "They even express more trust in the government agency."
  • ...3 more annotations...
  • Citizens who believe a site is highly transparent are 46 percent more likely to trust the overall government, 49 percent more likely to use the site as a primary resource and 37 percent more likely to return to the site, according to the study.
  • McClure also noted that a site's perceived transparency can save the government money by encouraging citizens to access services online, rather than through less efficient channels.
  • Other departments that want to make their sites more transparent "should stand firm when those at the helm pressure them to ignore what the audience wants, and instead design for the internal audience,"

ots.at: Ericsson Studie: Vom Internet in der Hosentasche zur vernetzten Gesellschaft - ... - 0 views

  • Aufgabe in Österreich: Kluft des Digital Divide schließen
  • Die Kluft zwischen den Early Adopters und der breiten Masse in Österreich ist größer als in anderen Teilen Europas. So ist es für fast die Hälfte (47 %) der Early Adopters wichtig, überall Internet-Zugang zu haben, aber nur für 18 % der insgesamt Befragten. "Der Digital Divide droht die Gesellschaft in zwei Gruppen zu teilen: jene mit Zugang zum Internet und jene, denen dieser verwehrt ist. Dem müssen wir mit aller Kraft entgegenwirken. Damit alle das Internet nutzen können, benötigen wir eine flächendeckende, leistungsstarke Breitband-Infrastruktur"

Open Data Study - New Technologies | Transparency & Accountability Initiative - 0 views

  • The report finds that 3 key groups or ‘layers’ were crucial to the successful introduction of open data. An influential and active civil society provided the ‘bottom up’ pressure for change through traditional advocacy and by setting up innovative websites demonstrating how open information could be used. Civil servants and state and federal administrators who saw open data as a way of improving efficiency provided the ‘middle layer’. Finally, high-level political leaders including Heads of States and Ministers provided the third layer.
