with sidetrips to Global Wisdom’s Bravo Reviewer for Online Editors, taxonomy building and auto-generation software that “combines the efficiency of auto-classification with the expertise of in-house editorial staff, allowing editors to train the auto-classification software within their ordinary workflow”

onto empolis x2x XLink engine that “enables organisations to create links that are more valuable than the information they link to”

Pray for peace, work for collective intelligence, wisdom and compassion. – SWL
