The Insidious Evils of 'Like' Culture - WSJ.com - 1 views
-
A status update that is met with no likes (or a clever tweet that isn't retweeted) becomes the equivalent of a joke met with silence. It must be rethought and rewritten. And so we don't show our true selves online, but a mask designed to conform to the opinions of those around us.
-
"Like" culture is antithetical to the concept of self-esteem, which a healthy individual should be developing from the inside out rather than from the outside in.

The psychoanalyst Erich Fromm presciently wrote over 60 years ago that man has "constructed a complicated social machine to administer the technical machine he built…. The more powerful and gigantic the forces are which he unleashes, the more powerless he feels himself as a human being. He is owned by his creations, and has lost ownership of himself."

Google fusion tablesThis online database and mapping tool has become our default for producing quick and detailed maps, especially those where you need to zoom in. You get all the high resolution of google maps but it can open a lot of data - 100mb of CSV, for instance. The first time you try it, Fusion tables may seem a little tricky - but stick with it.
-
Tableau PublicIf you don't need the unlimited space of the professional edition, this is free - and means you can make pretty complex visualisations simply and easily with up to 100,000 rows. We use it when we need to bring different types of charts together - as in this map of top tax rates around the world, which also has a bar chart too.
-
After something simple - like a bar or line chart, or a pie chart? You'll find that Google spreadsheets (which you create from the documents bit of your Google account) can create some pretty nice charts - including the animated bubbles used by Hans Rosling's Gapminder. Unlike the charts API you don't need to worry about code -

Open Data in Canada describes the capacity for the Canadian Federal Government and other levels of government in Canada to provide online access to internal data in a standards-compliant Web 2.0 way. Government 2.0 is a way to engage individuals and businesses in government decisionmaking and services. Integration of tools such as wikis, development of government-specific social networking sites and the use of blogs, RSS feeds and Google Maps are all helping governments provide information to people in a manner that is more immediately useful to the people concerned.[1] There are also aspects of improving Freedom of information in Canada but the main focus of Government 2.0 is citizen engagement.
La rivoluzione che serve all'Italia si chiama open gov [Buongiorno wikitalia!] | Riccar... - 3 views

Il governo-wiki, ovvero l’amministrazione che prende a modello ed utilizza gli strumenti collaborativi usati per esempio ogni giorno da migliaia di estensori anonimi e volontari di Wikipedia, è ormai oggetto di discussioni tutt’altro che accademiche; e la Wikicrazia (termine lanciato un paio di anni fa da un dirigente dell’Unione Europea ad un barcamp di hacker in Danimarca e poi adottato da Alberto Cottica per intitolare un libro fondamentale sul tema), è molto più dell’ultima nuova idea: per molti è l’unica via per ridare slancio all’azione di governo al tempo di Internet.

La stessa che consentì ad un gruppo di hacker di mettere su in poche ore e gratuitamente Katrinalist, un sito che aggiornava in tempo reale la lista dei sopravvisuti all’uragano di New Orleans, mentre il governo Bush annaspava.

grazie alla progressiva diffusione della banda larga e all’inevitabile arrivo al potere di una generazione di nativi digitali, è convinzione comune che entro il 2020 “le forme di cooperazione online accresceranno la disponibilità di governi, aziende, istituzioni ed organizzazioni no-profit a recepire e soddisfare più apertamente le necessità della popolazione” (conclusione del report 2010 della Elon University e del Pew Research Center).

Molto interessante. Grazie Nicola. Dovremmo mandarlo in "giro" negli ambienti politici e amministrativi per l'open gov....
-
il sito 'wikitalia' in realtà si rivolge principalmente ai Comuni, ma secondo me ci potrebbero essere molte informazioni utili nascoste anche nei dati del Servizio Sanitario...Let's set our data free!
