Should banks do supply chain?

Interesting thought about a new product line for banks.

Users don’t look at ads

Interesting heat maps showing how little people fixate on the ads on a web page. But even so you’ll see colours / shapes / brands on the page so may get some communication across. I never see them thanks to AdBlock Plus, so it isn’t an issue for me.

Congratulations Anto

Congratulations to ITW’s first qualified accountant achieved while working at the company.

Innovation and inclusion

Two items very close to things we’ve worked on before: Audit Commission on Innovation in local authorities and the eInclusion@EU project.

Amazing how seeing the sheer scale of the fires in Greece and the enormous pall their smoke casts makes you understand what’s happening more effectively. I had a similar reaction to an image of hurricane Katrina.

Windows whois

Windows whois tool. Works well and is faster than most of the online ones.

Modern data visualisation

Nice summary of the new tools being used to visualise data and information. I’m not sure their trendmap and a mindmap are the same thing, though.

Keep that cat under control

NB no cats were harmed in the making of the movie.
