On an average Sunday New York
Times contains more information than
a Renaissance-era person had access
to in his entire lifetime.
How long does it take the
knowledge to double up
1750 – 1900 - 150 years
1900-1950 – 50 years
1950 – 1960 – 10 years

5. information explosion has
made it difficult to understand,
learn and comprehend
subjects and its content
Social networks, connected objects, information systems, Open data: our societies always generate more
data without having the time to develop the tools to understand them.
This data-deluge forever changed the way we work and inform us. Whatever the public concerned, it now
expects the transparency and clarity to give her confidence . However, neither journalists nor traditional
information sources today have the means to make them readable data streams that impact our daily lives.

most important data that should/can be
communicated
Acquire data, supplement with
other public data if necessary. Parse and
format data and integrate multiple
datasets. Filter to only include relevant data
Align with best possible patterns to
visualize data and test with end-users on
biases, consumption and refine. Check if the
goals are met. Add meaningful and simple
interaction for users to manipulate

Editor's Notes
If I search for ‘Where can I buy Diapers’ – it returns a page with list of stores – possibly because it runs on Google Search Appliance (although the page title reads as Pampers Village). However, it shows me a list of US retailers. It’s at ‘Knowledge’ level and needs to include ‘Context’. Many search engines construct an elaborated queries from the 2-3 word keyword input by using information about similar searches, ratings, user locale etc.
