Reducing Information Pollution

IORG Blog

Listen to the IORG Authors’ Panel webinar

July 3, 2011 | Posted By Nathan Zeldes

On June 27, 2011, IORG hosted five authors of books about Information Overload for a fascinating “Literary Salon” online event, where they discussed their reasons for writing their books and the issues and solutions that they find most significant.

The authors are Dave Crenshaw (author of The Myth of Multitasking), Daniel Forrester (author of Consider), Maggie Jackson (author of Distracted), William Powers (author of Hamlet’s BlackBerry), and Jonathan Spira (author of Overload! How Too Much Information Is Hazardous To Your Organization).

You can read a summary of the event here and download a full audio recording here.

Enjoy!

    I am looking for web tools that can help organize information in a different way, empowering the user to own, manage and cure the content. Something along the lines of what http://Thotz.net does. Any ideas? Thanks
