Killer Insights
Chris Murphy of InformationWeek posted some very good points from CIOs at the IW 500 conference.
So as a CIO, are you immersed in a six-month bakeoff to decide on the right content management or email system? Lane's implication: You're doing the wrong job -- Ray Lane, Hewlett-Packard chairman
Great IT teams today are asking the question: What does the end customer need from us? -- Chris Murphy
"Many of us have been educated out of our creative confidence." -- Sir Ken Robinson
Creativity is: "unique ideas that have value."
"Your best friend is the CMO. That's where the action is really happening." -- Robert Urwiler, Vail Resorts CIO
“The only thing we were going to be wed to is being open minded” -- Paul DePodesta, New York Mets VP of player development and scouting
"Social media points us in the direction of where we need to do more research." -- Jared Anderson, Best Buy senior manager of customer experience research
"...hackers searched for and exploited one of just two ColdFusion-based websites the lab still had. Companies often don't keep up the attention and technical skills needed to keep those small systems secure" -- Jerry Johnson, CIO, Pacific Northwest National Laboratory

How to deal with contextual synomys
Just read an interesting post on Lucid Imagination's Blog from Nicholas Chase:
How do you deal with contextual synonyms? For example, “bow” and “ribbon” are synonyms — unless you’re also looking for arrows.
That caught my attention and I read the entire post and slide show - highly recommend.
In short - how a company created an 'automated' testing method based on TREC and use it to tune relevance. I for one would appreciate the release of SQUAT.

Metadata
Found a unique description to help describe what to use metadata for from Draves:
- what you should learn first if you don't understand this sub-unit or data
- what you should learn next if you do understand this sub-unit or data
- what other sub-units or data this piece of data is related to
- what kinds of people (jobs, industries, interest areas) might be interested in this subunit or data
- what kinds of courses this sub-unit or data might be used for
