Data Science of the Facebook World

Data Science of the Facebook World | Science News | Scoop.it
Stephen Wolfram shares interesting Facebook data analysis finds from the Data Donor program of Wolfram|Alpha Personal Analytics for Facebook.
Sakis Koukouvis's insight:

We’re starting to be able to train a serious “computational telescope” on the “social universe”. And it’s letting us discover all sorts of phenomena. That have the potential to help us understand much more about society and about ourselves. And that, by the way, provide great examples of what can be achieved with data science, and with the technology I’ve been working on developing for so long.

ResearchGate may sound like a political scandal, but it’s not. It’s a way for thinkers and researchers around the world to connect, and its ability to put many minds on the same problem may drastically increase the speed of scientific discoveries.

Nielsen, M.: Reinventing Discovery: The New Era of Networked Science.

Nielsen, M.: Reinventing Discovery: The New Era of Networked Science. | Science News | Scoop.it

"In Reinventing Discovery, Michael Nielsen argues that we are living at the dawn of the most dramatic change in science in more than 300 years. This change is being driven by powerful new cognitive tools, enabled by the internet, which are greatly accelerating scientific discovery. There are many books about how the internet is changing business or the workplace or government. But this is the first book about something much more fundamental: how the internet is transforming the nature of our collective intelligence and how we understand the world."
