A pause

There's been a brief hiatus where I've been very busy at work.

I am also now using Twitter to highlight interesting articles when I've not got the time to go into greater depth - see the box on the right or follow the updates here

Very interested to see if Twitter represents the hive mind that some view as the future of search.

Having read James Surowiecki’s The Wisdom of Crowds a couple of years ago the idea of emergent properties resulting from individual micro-actions is intriguing. But as with Google, the true impact of Twitter is likely to be some way off as users both shape and adapt the service through improved 'Twiteracy'.
