Reprends le contrôle de tes fichiers et de ton bureau ! Pas de quiproquo : je ne vais pas t'apprendre à classer tes factures papiers dans des classeurs et tes dossiers dans des armoires. Tu te doutes bien qu'il s'agit du rangement de ton (tes?) Ordinateur(s) préférés dont je vais te parler aujourd'hui. Je ne sais pas pour toi, mais j'ai une sérieuse tendance à privilégier de plus en plus le format informatique pour tous les documents possibles : plus faciles à archiver, à transporter, à ranger, à retrouver... à condition d'être un minimum organisé ! Car multiplier les machines, les logiciels, les fichiers, les versions... peut vite devenir un enfer pour s'y retrouver.

This form of verification involves some new tools and techniques, and requires a basic understanding of the way networks operate and how people use them. It also requires many of the so-called old school values and techniques that have been around for a while: being skeptical, asking questions, tracking down high quality sources, exercising restraint, collaborating and communicating with team members.

For example, lots of people talk about how Andy Carvin does crowdsourced verification and turns his Twitter feed into a real time newswire. Lost in the discussion is the fact that Carvin also develops sources and contacts on the ground and stays in touch with them on Skype and through other means. What you see on Twitter is only one part of the process. Some things never go out of style. From the post: Teaher's Guide to Information Crap Detection.
