OK, I have learned from those who know me that sometimes my venting-frustration e-mails to colleagues or our Website’s service providers are … over the top.
Granted, I have learned that e-mail can be the BEST way to reach a news source – beats phone tag, for sure. Sometimes people in the newsroom can’t get hold of someone – granted, they need to get someone on-camera, usually – but for info or a quick answer, it’s still one of the best ways to get it.
But it’s also just too easy to fire off a vent-note when something isn’t working again and … well usually it’s in part to make folks aware, but it’s also to… complain, and whine. I need to dial that back, and I will.
But Google… well, now that’s a different story. I’ve read the sample and am probably about to buy a book about the wonders of Big Data — how amazing all that data can be at, say, tracking where the flu is hitting, in real time (via search queries!)
It’s not a matter of calculating formula dreck, it’s just having alll that data can present magical answers we never could have gotten the old-fashioned way.
And because it’s late, I’ll leave it at that;-)
