| The Visual Wiki: a new metaphor for knowledge access and management |
 |
Google Tech Talks
June 4, 2008
ABSTRACT
Successful knowledge management results in a
competitive advantage in today's information-
and knowledge-rich industries. The
elaboration and integration of emerging
web-based tools and services has proven
suitable for collecting and organizing
intellectual property. Due to an increasing
information overload, information and
knowledge visualization have become an
effective method for representing complex
bodies of knowledge in an alternative fashion
by using visual languages. The focus of this
research is the development of a "Visual
Wiki", which combines the notion of a textual
and a visual representation of knowledge. A
Visual Wiki model has been proposed which
provides a unified framework to design and
discuss different approaches. Three
prototypes of Visual Wikis have been
implemented and evaluated according to the
improvements to knowledge management
applications that they facilitate. This is
joint work with Christian Hirsch and John
Grundy

| Quantum Knowledge |
 |
In physics, a quantum (plural: quanta) is an
indivisible entity of a quantity that has the
same units as the Planck constant and is
related to both energy and momentum of
elementary particles of matter (called
fermions) and of photons and other bosons.
The word comes from the Latin "quantus," for
"how much." Behind this, one finds the
fundamental notion that a physical property
may be "quantized", referred to as
"quantization". This means that the magnitude
can take on only certain discrete numerical
values, rather than any value, at least
within a range. There is a related term of
quantum number.
A photon is often referred to as a "light
quantum." The energy of an electron bound to
an atom (at rest) is said to be quantized,
which results in the stability of atoms, and
of matter in general. But these terms can be
a little misleading, because what is
quantized is this Planck's constant quantity
whose units can be viewed as either energy
multiplied by time or momentum multiplied by
distance....
Usually referred to as quantum "mechanics,"
it is regarded by virtually every
professional physicist as the most
fundamental framework we have for
understanding and describing nature at the
infinitesimal level, for the very practical
reason that it works. It is "in the nature of
things", not a more or less arbitrary human
preference.laws of attraction

I wanted to make a video that was different
and it is more me sharing things that you can
learn. And I actualy know alot of more stuff
that I can teach maybe sometime.
"Sometimes the most Brilliant things come in
packages you didnt even know."

P.S. I will tell all about New York when they
upload it! They just said I ca'nt say
anything until then

| Globalization and the Flow of Knowledge |
 |
Speakers: AnnaLee Saxenian, Dean, School of
Information and Professor, City and Regional
Planning, University of California, Berkeley.
Steven Weber, Director, Institute of
International Studies and Professor,
Political Science
The mobility of skilled labor is transforming
the flow of knowledge around the world. As
U.S.-educated engineers and professionals
return to their home countries, they are
turning what once was a brain drain into a
two-way process of brain circulation. These
professionals are transferring to developing
regions the technology and managerial
know-how that once resided exclusively in
advanced economies like the U.S. This process
is fueling the emergence of new centers of
technology entrepreneurship and creating new
competitors for Silicon Valley and
foreshadows persistent global skill shortages
in coming decades. Discover Cal Lecture,
University of California, Berkeley.

| What is The Knowledge'? |
 |
No one can be told what 'The Knowledge' is,
you have to see it for yourself; and I do
urge you to track down this great TV film
from 1979 written by the great Jack
Rosenthal.
Oh ok then, if you want to know what the
knowledge is then watch this fantastic scene
where the late Nigel Hawthorne playing the
evil Mr Burgess, explains all.
This isn't the complete sequence as it's
intercut with monologues from the applicants.
I've cut it down to get it under ten minutes
and preserve Mr Burgess' speech.
