I’m a cycling nut and it is almost becoming standard that the journos use twitter as their primary source for up to date information from the riders/managers etc, you often see the stories being written up as ‘such and such said blah blah’ on their twitter feed. What I like about it is that we have journalism that is easily verified by the reader, the author cannot be misquoted! If only the same were true of BI (even that produced from an enterprise DWH): The report is run, the dashboard viewed but how difficult is it for the user to verify that what it is telling them is true! I’m talking of course about the lack of data lineage and how long it actually takes a user to drill to the actual detail in most state of the art BI tools.

Thank you once again for your kind words and it is a small world isn’t it?

By the way, I now can add another common point between us: Richard Feynman. I’ve learned about him through James Gleick biography, Genius, and come to appreciate his brand of humour.
