Gapminder: Unveiling the beauty of statistics for a fact based world view. Periscope QR-Code | Convirtiendo la tinta en bits Web pioneer warns of data Dark Age Vint Cerf, a "father of the internet", says he is worried that all the images and documents we have been saving on computers will eventually be lost. Currently a Google vice-president, he believes this could occur as hardware and software become obsolete. He fears that future generations will have little or no record of the 21st Century as we enter what he describes as a "digital Dark Age". Mr Cerf made his comments at a large science conference in San Jose. He arrived at the annual meeting of the American Association for the Advancement of Science stylishly dressed in a three-piece suit. I felt obliged to thank him for the internet, and he bowed graciously. His focus now is to resolve a new problem that threatens to eradicate our history. Our life, our memories, our most cherished family photographs increasingly exist as bits of information - on our hard drives or in "the cloud". "I worry a great deal about that," Mr Cerf told me. "Plainly not," Vint Cerf laughed.

Chicago builds ETL toolkit for open data -- GCN Chicago builds ETL toolkit for open data By Stephanie KanowitzJan 16, 2015 Data officials in Chicago are churning out open datasets faster than ever by using technology rather than developers to get the job done. About a year ago, the city government embedded Pentaho Data Integration (PDI), a graphical extract-transform-load (ETL) tool with pre-built and custom components to process big data, into its OpenData ETL Utility Kit. The kit provides several utilities and a framework to help governments extract data from a database and upload it to an open data portal using automated ETL processes. Before working with PDI, city workers updated datasets manually, said Jon Levy, open data program manager at the Chicago Department of Innovation and Technology. That also meant Java developers were spending time on updates rather than writing applications that could help city workers and residents, added Tom Schenk, the city’s chief data officer. Chicago’s toolkit is free to download. About the Author
