Do You Know Why You Collaborate?
11th November 2014
When you think about why you collaborate, what immediately springs to mind? Do you collaborate because you want to share content or documents that you have created, do you collaborate because you want to reach an outcome that can only be done with other individuals' help, or are you trying to manage a large scale project? There are in fact many reasons why people might choose to collaborate, but what's significant is that you should know why you're collaborating before you do it.

Security - How Far Can You Trust the Evidence, and What Can You Do?
7th November 2014
Whether it's retail fraud, security breaches that are inside jobs or lack of caution in implementing Bring Your Own Device (BYOD), information professionals need to be circumspect when the evidence comes from organisations that also happen to provide solutions to the problems they highlight. But sometimes that evidence - on the extent to which employees are responsible for security risks, or the role played by mobile devices - indicates some degree of consensus. And when it's backed up by specific concerns expressed by government or regulatory bodies - about outsourcing for instance, or lack of awareness among small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs), that's when info pros can sense an opportunity to be seized.

Analytics - Not As Far Behind As You Fear?
6th November 2014
Contrary to popular belief, everyone probably isn't ahead of you in adopting big data. In fact most enterprises are still struggling, not least because they still seem to think that, with so much data at their disposal, they don't need to worry about every little flaw, and that technology will eliminate the need for data integration. Collecting stuff faster than they can sort it seems to be a key problem, and it can't be solved by exclusive reliance on data scientists. Old fashioned activities like taxonomy still have their role to play - and the competition regulators' interest in the few big data leaders suggests that the prize is well worth the effort.

Redefining Email with Google's Inbox!
5th November 2014
Managing emails is an inevitable part of our professional and personal lives, but the process of keeping on top of the deluge has become something that many people struggle with. Dealing with an email avalanche after coming back from holiday or trying to deal with the multiple conversation threads that can exist within email can be a challenge.

Fortunately for users familiar with Gmail there may be light at the end of the email tunnel.
