Re: Kieran's Congressional Research Service question - I haven't used it for CTI (though I imagine it would be very useful for industry-level information); but I just found that GalleryWatch has an extensive collection of CRS reports, more complete…
Hi, Jocelyn. Thank you for your kind words. I guessed (even before I looked on my blog to see what I'd written on September 22) that you were talking about the "it's hard to accept intelligence that breaks your heart" post. Yes, that's very hard to do -- and it's really been a hard last few months for the SF legal community.
Perhaps contrary to what some have posted, I'm aware of at least 40 (perhaps more?) law firms that are developing some interesting internal CI functions, through a variety of structures. Although this isn't a time of expansion for law firms, I see firms routing resources into CI in an effort to find early mover and execution benefits.
There are many good CI resources out here. Use them all. Feel free to call if you just want to run any of your ideas up the flagpole. I'll be happy to give you my reactions, for what they're worth. Accept my very best wishes in your endeavors.
I left a message for you regarding CI in law Firms at the bottom of the page in case you didn't see it - I replied to a reply rather than to you by accident and don't want to repost. In any event, drop me a line if you want to chat more specifically, I've been working in CI in law firms in Canada for over 5 years - at two of the countries most successful firms. Email if you want and we can set up a time to chat.
Hi Jocelyn: Thanks for joining our group. You are in one of the "hot growth" areas of our field. I am confident you'll find our community to be a welcoming and helpful one to you in your program development activities. Good wishes, Craig
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 reading Seena Sharp's Competitive Intelligence Advantageand it is quickly becoming one of my favorites. I have read other books, but got little practical use out of them--they were much to academic. I am trying to compile a recommended bibliogr…
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.
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…
