Collaboration

I have been very impressed by the development of the ABC website in recent years.
I think the podcast service available since 2007 has been outstanding. I have even contemplated getting into bed with Phillip Adams.

I am fascinated by the possibilities of open sharing and am thinking about a portal to share information to support lifelong learning. I believe that the ABC, The Conversation and The Australian Collaboration sites have set a standard for what such a portal could be.
I liked this slide from Krish Krishnan’s Webinar on Integrating Big Data this week as a check to my idealism:
 

Like Krish I can we have some interesting opportunities ahead to put things together:
