The Wisdom of Crowds - 0 views

  •  
    How did you discover the wisdom of crowds?  The idea really came out of my writing on how markets work. Markets are made up of diverse people with different levels of information and intelligence, and yet when you put all those people together and they start buying and selling, they come up with generally intelligent decisions. Sometimes, though, they come up with remarkably stupid decisions-as they did during the stock-market bubble in the late 1990s. I was interested in what explained the successes and the failures of markets, and as I got further into it I realized that it wasn't just markets that were smart. In fact, crowds of all sorts were often remarkably wise.

Social Media Dialogue to Boost Community Regeneration « E-Government Bulletin... - 0 views

  • « Government ‘Ignoring Location-Based Services’ Social Media Dialogue to Boost Community Regeneration Tristan Parker A project using technology to engage local people to help reinvigorate a run-down inner city shopping area is one of 31 new “community hubs” being funded by the national digital inclusion network UK Online Centres ( http://www.ukonlinecentres.com/ ). The initiative will use Facebook, Twitter and SurveyMonkey (an online survey creation tool) to gauge local opinion, spread awareness and stimulate conversation about regeneration in the Cherry Tree estate in Romiley, an area of Stockport, where there are a number of closed-down shopping units. The organisation funded is Starting Point, a community partnership which has already revitalised a run-down shopping precinct in Stockport, Manchester. Other community hub projects will focus on libraries, community centres and local government buildings. “It’s about how organisations within a community can use technology as a catalyst or supporting tool to support ideas and create social action or change within that community,” Amy Gadd
  •  
    It's about how organisations within a community can use technology as a catalyst or supporting tool to support ideas and create social action or change within that community," Amy Gadd, senior network manager of the community hubs project, told E-Government Bulletin. All the hubs' progress will also be measured over the funded period up to April 2013, to evaluate its impact. "We'll be creating case studies as we go, particularly in terms of how technology has made a change", said Gadd. "We're not expecting massive changes, they may be quite small, but significant to that community. And we'll be pulling some of those stories out, spreading them through the UK Online Centres network, so that others can follow.

Technology and taxis: A digital fare tale | The Economist - 0 views

  •  
    ON A recent visit to Washington, DC, Babbage and a companion tried to hail a cab just after rush hour in pouring rain. Taxis would slow, drivers would ask if your correspondent was headed to Virginia (a lucrative run and the destination of many bureaucrats) and then promptly speed off on learning that he wasn't. Finally, one cabbie took mercy, but not before the hapless hailers were thoroughly drenched. Babbage should have used Uber. Tap a button on a phone app and Uber magically summons a private car. It does this by engaging yield-management principles that tie together smartphones, GPS locations, existing licensed drivers, user ratings, all-in-one billing and back-office organisation. Uber maintains an inventory in the form of potential rides and uses demand-based pricing to increase supply during peak periods. "The yield-management creates a new market opportunity that didn't exist before", says Travis Kalanick, Uber's co-founder.

canon MR augmented reality - 0 views

    the new 'MR (mixed reality) system' by canon enables the viewing of full-scale, 3-dimensional CGI in real environments. the full-vision headset donned by users integrates not only video cameras and displays but also a positional and directional sensor that ensure that the virtual image is seen at the proper perspective relative to the viewer. canon refers to the system as 'mixed reality' to contrast it from a simple superimposing of imagery onto the real environment, since the digital imagery is explorable in realistic 3D thanks to these sensors.

L'avenir de l'industrie est-il dans l'open source ? | L'Innovation en questions - 0 views

  •  
    Les signaux s'accumulent. L'industrie « traditionnelle » serait de plus en plus tentée par l'open source. C'était déjà le cas dans l'électronique, avec notamment la carte Arduino. La santé et l'automobile y trouveraient aussi aujourd'hui un relais d'innovation crédible, voir incontournable. Un article de The Economist intitulé « When code can kill or cure » (dans le cahier spécial technologie du N° du 2 juin 2012) explique qu'utiliser un modèle « open source » à la conception des équipements médicaux promet d'accroître la sécurité et l'innovation. Basés aujourd'hui sur des systèmes ultra-propriétaires, les équipements médicaux, défibrillateurs, pompes à insulines sont parfois soumis à des défaillances bien plus graves qu'un simple plantage d'ordinateur. Sans parler des tentations des hackers de prouver la vulnérabilité de ces systèmes au piratage.

    Les idées de réindustrialisation, de made in France, de démondialisation se développent sur le constat d'une mutation profonde de l'économie mondiale. Mais les politiques publiques adéquates restent à inventer : l'enjeu n'est pas simplement de subventionner des projets ou de superposer de nouveaux outils, il s'agit de construire de nouvelles relations entre les territoires, leurs populations, les entreprises et les acteurs financiers. L'économie est désormais un enjeu démocratique.
