Just lining up final details with the venue and our sponsors for the very first Intelligence Collaborative meeting here in Washington. We're expecting around 75 - 100 attendees to join us in Adams Morgan, Washington DC. It should be quiet a blast. More details to follow shortly.

My opinion: we should share anything that is not proprietary and that we know may be useful to others. Probably it will usually be in response to a question, but sometimes I get really excited when I find something elusive and I might just want to tell someone! I think the emphasis on raising the visibility and credibility of the profession is right on, and I think one of the best ways to do that is to collaborate and share -- it will make us all stronger. Maybe we have a best practice question once a month or something. An online community of practice. Leave the competition aside -- what determines how much business you get is not based on how many sources you have, but how creative you are in using them, and what kind of customer service and value for the money you provide. I just don't believe there are any bad consequences to sharing knowledge -- ever.

Collaboration : nice; big potential. I join the game. Is it the idea to share intelligence techniques (how to.. ) or also to share content ('I can't find xyz, anybody can tell me where to look?').

Hi Eric, Where is your French version of this essay?
Chris Hote Comment by Chris Hote on September 15, 2009 at 1:46pm
Hi Arik, Indeed just started to tweet from #pharmaci. more to follow.
Ellen Naylor Comment by Ellen Naylor on September 15, 2009 at 1:25pm
Hi Eric,

I like this idea of collaboration in the profession and inclusiveness. Count me in! Like Tim, this was SCIP's intention when we were both on its board.
Tim Powell Comment by Tim Powell on September 15, 2009 at 12:01pm
Sounds great, Eric. Nice summary of the situation.

Believe it or not, thse goals are pretty much what SCIP was trying to do when it started. I agree that a return to its more "organic" opriginas is a step in the right direction.

Hey Chris - how's the Pharma meeting going? Are you tweeting it?
Eric Garland Comment by Eric Garland on September 15, 2009 at 11:44am
I'm working on the French translation to this essay: please check my grammar!

I find websites like www.wikiinvest.com as good starting points for CI projects. But again these are more websites than tools. I have not come across any comprehensive tools than can do the analysis for you and most CI tools I have seen here and els…

I am reading Seena Sharp's Competitive Intelligence Advantage and it is quickly becoming a favorite. I have read other books and found them too academic to be practical. I am compiling a list of recommended reading (books, websites, blogs, magazines…

I am enjoying the book, still working through it with all my other reading, but I like the practicality of it. Practitioners of the art need more than academic treaties on the subject. And thanks for making it a Kindle selection--when you travel aro…

Well getting a clean feed takes a combination of good web-sources and appropriate taxonomy-based semantic filters. It seems your friend's RSS is clean and thus it may be worth to look at his/her taxonomy. Any insight?

Indeed Richard you seem pretty well covered as far as information retrieval is concerned. What about analysis, sharing, collaboration with others? What about aggregating those feeds together? Any insights would be helpful.
yesterday
I use e-sobi. It is a rss and podcast feed reader. I can add the feeds I want, I can store pages for later use, I can set alerts. Seems to be more powerful than the free readers. SInce you can organize it the way you want, it provides a way to quick…
