Welcome to the V7N6 June 2009 issue of the Awareness Watch™ Newsletter. This newsletter is available as a complimentary subscription and will be issued monthly. Each newsletter will feature the following:

Awareness Watch™ Featured Report Awareness Watch™ Spotters Awareness Watch™ Book/Paper/Article Review Subject Tracer™ Information Blogs

I am always open to feedback from readers so please feel free to email with all suggestions, reviews and new resources that you feel would be appropriate for inclusion in an upcoming issue of Awareness Watch™. This is an ongoing work of creativity and you will be observing constant changes, constant updates knowing that “change” is the only thing that will remain constant!!

Awareness Watch™ Featured Report

This month’s featured report will be highlighting my publication Searching the Internet - A Primer. This publication is also available at the following URL:

http://www.SearchingTheInternet.info/

This publication is designed to give you the resources that will allow you to search the Internet for the various information needs that are required for your business, profession or special interest. It follows a four point system that I have given at presentations, speeches and seminars over many years and will allow you the ease of understanding and implementation for searching the Internet both for the “newbie” as well as the “seasoned veteran” to the World Wide Web and Internet.

Marcus P. Zillman, M.S., A.M.H.A. Executive Director - Virtual Private Library http://www.searchingtheinternet.info/

Searching the Internet is now as common place as driving the car and most people consider the use of just one search engine to obtain results that they are looking for. This paper is designed to open your eyes to the many excellent resources on the Internet to search for information and/or to discover new knowledge! This paper will explain to you a number of ways to search for information on the Internet and methods to continue your searches and knowledge discovery. This paper is also designed for the “newbie” to the Internet or for the person who only uses one source to search for information on the Internet.

There are basically four areas to search for information on the Internet: 1) Search Engines, 2) Indexes and Directories, 3) Intuitive Search and 4) Custom Search and Deep Web Search. This paper will give a brief explanation of each area followed by some examples that you may immediately implement! The goal here is to broaden your search horizons so you may make searching the Internet easier to perform. This paper is not designed for advanced or sophisticated searching techniques as these will be addressed in other of my papers, columns and articles.

Search engines on the Internet are powered by “bots” that actively go out and search for meta description and keywords in files that are placed on the Internet. When you visit the search engine and type in the keyword or phrase that you are looking for the results that are generated come from the latest searching by the search engine’s bots that are deposited in the search engine’s database. The currency of the results is purely based on when the search engine’s bots visited the site and brought back the meta information to the search engine’s database. There are literally thousands upon thousands of search engines on the Internet and I will list only a few of the larger and better known. I will also list a “list” of search engines all over the world so you can visit many of them to obtain a better understanding of search engines in general!

Indexes and Directories

Most individuals are accustomed to looking for information from directories and indices. This has started with the “telephone” book and then to other similar sources of directory information. The Internet also has a number of directory resources that allow you to search in a more convenient and simple format to find the information that you are looking for by going from menu to menu to menu until you find the subject and/or topic that you are looking for. Many of these are called subject trees, subject directories and are available freely over the Internet. There are literally tens of thousands of directories and subject trees on the Internet and as with Search Engines I will list some of the larger and more popular directories as well as a listing of a Directory of Directories on the Internet.

Yahoo! http://www.Yahoo.com/

Figure 2: DirectoryResources.info Subject Tracer™

Intuitive searching on the Internet is a fun way to look for information that could be available. By entering a name … any name into the search engine it will return potentially relevant results. This is also an excellent way to check out an individual by typing in their complete name and observing the results brought back by the search engine. Sometimes this could be very interesting. As an example with Google™ you may search for results from the Web, results from Images, results from Groups, results from Directories and results from News. All these results are available from the labeled tabs at the top of each of Google’s pages. Also you may take the intuitive name and add one of the basic seven domain name suffixes to it to obtain potentially relevant results:

IntuitiveName.biz

IntuitiveName.com

IntuitiveName.info

IntuitiveName.net

IntuitiveName.org

IntuitiveName.us

IntuitiveName.ws

Replace the IntuitiveName with the name that you are searching for i.e. Research or ResearchResources, etc. and add one of the suffixes above and then enter it in the URL line of your browser to see if that site exists today on the Internet. Also remember that if you have more than one word that all the words must run together to become a potential domain name (Research.com, ResearchResources.info, etc.). This could be a very interesting and valuable resource to finding information on the Internet and must be done periodically as new domain names are being created daily! If you do not find anything today it could very well be created tomorrow!!

Custom Search and Deep Web Research

Searching the Internet with your own SearchBot or developing a resource list of areas of deep web search will aid you in the discovery of new information as well as going where no search engines have traveled or fear to go! You do not need to be a Geek, Nerd or BotMaster to travel these search areas and I will list some of the highly viewed sites and resources. As the creator of BotSpot.com in 1996 I have used and visited literally hundreds of these resources on an ongoing and continuing basis or I have created these resources to aid the Internet community in discovering information and knowledge in the deep and invisible web. Here are a few of these resources:

Melt Mail - Your Temporary eMail Forwarding http://meltmail.com/ Have you ever downloaded a software, where you have to register with your e-mail to receive the activation-code or the download-link? Have you ever registered to a forum with your real e-mail, just to post one question? There are a lot of scenarios as such. And in every case, you give your real e-mail address and get tons of junk-mail as a thankyou. With Melt Mail, you only give your unique Melt Mail address (which forwards to your own), get the desired information and after a defined period of time (the melting point) the Melt Mail address will be deleted. Enter your e-mail address in the text field and choose how long your Melt Mail forward-address should be available -- it's the melting point. After hitting the "create"-button, a unique Meltmail is created which forwards every incoming mail to your e-mail acccount. After the melting point is reached, they delete your real e-mail address from their forwarding database and also the Meltmail won't be available anymore. So, they only store your e-mail address during the period of time you defined with the melting point. Compared to other services, Melt Mail cares about your privacy! First of all, Melt Mail doesn't store any of the e-mails you forward using this service. The system is simply not interested in them. Secondly, the e-mail address you give to us, is only stored in our mail forwarding database during the period of time you define due choosing a melting point. After that period of time, theu only store the normal connection data for the period of time specified by the german law. And the most important part: they don't use your e-mail addresses for sending SPAM or other kind of mails. This has been added to Privacy Resources Subject Tracer™ Information Blog.

Flare Index to Treaties http://193.62.18.232/dbtw-wpd/textbase/treatysearch.htm The Flare Index to Treaties is a searchable database of basic information on over 1,500 of the most significant multilateral treaties from 1856 to the present, with details of where the full text of each treaty may be obtained in paper and, if available, electronic form on the Internet. The Index includes only those treaties where there are three or more parties to the instrument. The selection has been based on entries in Multilateral Treaties: index and current status, compiled and annotated within the University of Nottingham Treaty Centre by M.J. Bowman and D.J. Harris (London: Butterworths, 1984, ninth supplement, 1992) - hereafter referred to as Bowman & Harris - and International Legal Materials 19

Awareness Watch V7N6 June 2009 Newsletter http://www.AwarenessWatch.com/ [email protected] eVoice: 800-858-1462 © 2009 Marcus P. Zillman, M.S., A.M.H.A. (Washington, D.C., American Society of International Law, 1962-). While it would be desirable to create an index to all types of treaty the magnitude of the task may be illustrated by the fact that the World Treaty Index, compiled by Peter H. Rohn (Santa Barbara, California, 1984), covered all treaties signed between 1900 and 1980, yet comprises over 44,000 entries. Clearly, it is beyond the resources of the present project to bring that work up to date, so the Flare Index to Treaties includes only the most significant treaties, conventions and agreements with at least three parties. Bilateral treaties are not included. This has been added to International Trade Resources Subject Tracer™ Information Blog.

Center on Budget and Policy Priorities http://www.cbpp.org/ The Center on Budget and Policy Priorities is one of the nation’s premier policy organizations working at the federal and state levels on fiscal policy and public programs that affect low- and moderate-income families and individuals. The Center conducts research and analysis to help shape public debates over proposed budget and tax policies and to help ensure that policymakers consider the needs of low-income families and individuals in these debates. We also develop policy options to alleviate poverty. In addition, the Center examines the short- and long-term impacts of proposed policies on the health of the economy and the soundness of federal and state budgets. Among the issues we explore are whether federal and state governments are fiscally sound and have sufficient revenue to address critical priorities, both for low-income populations and for the nation as a whole. Over the past quarter-century, the Center has gained a reputation for producing materials that are balanced, authoritative, accessible to non-specialists, and responsive to issues facing the country. Our materials are used by policymakers and nonprofit organizations across the political spectrum, and by journalists from a wide variety of TV, radio, print, and online outlets.

Create a map of your ideas, images, videos, then show overview, zoom to details, amaze, convince, take the day. And it is very simple to use. The ideology of Prezi is based upon our natural knowledge of how to coordinate ourselves in space; traditionally all information we have had to process and store used to be linked to physical space. That is where our minds have developed good skills in orienting ourselves. Despite all this, digital information today is mostly presented to us as a moniker of printed matter. Of course printing has served us well to store (and shape) information for the the last six centuries, however, with the wide appearance of computing we saw the same old pattern: old forms got translated to new media without exploring its full potential. Most of the computer systems which present us with information today use the old paradigm of prints and slides: arranging information on a framed 2d static space. They could argue that these (at least their forms) are merely the side effect of Gutenberg's galaxy. This has been added to the tools section of Research Resources Subject Tracer™ Information Blog.

iMedisearch - Medical Search Engine of Reputable Resources http://www.imedisearch.com/ iMedisearch was originally developed as an extension of features of a pharmacist's clinical resources website - RPhWorld. It was developed out of needs to search pharmacists' trusted and reliable online resources without having to go through each of the websites one at a time. The author, a clinical pharmacist, personally tested this new search engine in his practice and found that it returns much more relevant results compared with the traditional Google. The search engine seems to know that the user is a pharmacist by returning results a pharmacist would be interested in such as drug information and continuing education. This engine was shared with colleagues and with other pharmacists on RPhWorld.com. The feedbacks were overwhelmingly positive. These encouraging feedbacks lead to further development of the search module for physicians, then one for patients or the general public, and eventually one for nurses and allied healths. iMedisearch is an independent entity. They are neither funded nor supported by any third party. However, they do collaborate with HON in providing our

TagCloud - Create Your Own TagCloud From Any Text http://tagcrowd.com/ TagCrowd is a web application for visualizing word frequencies in any user-supplied text by creating what is popularly known as a tag cloud or text cloud. It was created by Daniel Steinbock, a doctoral student in Design and Education at Stanford University. Today, text clouds are primarily used for navigation and visualization on Web 2.0 sites that employ user-generated metadata (tags) as a categorization scheme. (Flickr is a good example.) TagCrowd is doing something different. When you look at a text cloud, you see not only an informative, beautiful image that communicates much in a single glance, you see a whole new perspective on text. TagCrowd is taking tag clouds far beyond their original function: a) as topic summaries for speeches and written works, b) as blog tool or website analysis for search engine optimization (SEO), c) for visual analysis of survey data, d) as brand clouds that let companies see how they are perceived by the world, e) for data mining a text corpus, f) for helping writers and students reflect on their work, g) as name tags for conferences, cocktail parties or wherever new collaborations start, h) as resumes in a single glance, and i) as visual poetry. The list goes on and continues to grow. In the future, TagCrowd will develop into a suite of experimental tools and tutorials that empower social and collaborative uses for text clouds and related visualizations. Their mission is to push the innovation envelope in online and face-to-face communities of all stripes.

Reflect: Automated Annotation of Scientific Terms of Proteins and Small Molecules http://reflect.ws/ Reflect is a new service able to recognise proteins and small molecules mentioned in a web page, and link them to information-rich summaries. Simply by pressing a button on your browser, or typing a url in the Reflect's web page, the new service will automatically add hyperlinks to the names of proteins and small molecules. Clicking on an annotated element, displays a pop-up window that gives information about the term, and allows the user to quickly link to more detailed information. For each protein or gene, Reflect provides domain structure, subcellular localization, 3D structure, and interaction partners. For small molecules, Reflect provides the chemical structure and interaction partners. Reflect has three user interfaces: a standard web page, and plug-ins for Firefox and Internet Explorer. The interfaces were constructed using HTML, JavaScript, XMLbased User Interface Language (XUL), and Document Object Model (DOM) events. Communication between browser and server is via XMLHttpRequest objects. HTML documents are sent to the server, which uses regular expressions to distinguish plain text from HTML markup. Substitutions occur only at the free text portion of an HTML page. The text of existing hyperlinks is excluded from the annotation. The text of each document is first parsed for organism names, then parsed again for protein names associated with the organisms found in the first parse, or with a default organism set by the user. Recognized gene, protein, or small molecule names are substituted with hyperlinks that generates a summary popup using overLib (http://overlib.boughner.us). The document is returned to the browser with previous HTML tags and their attributes unaffected, hence preserving the original document format. The core component of Reflect is a consolidated dictionary that links names and synonyms to source data entries. It was created by merging the STRING (http://string.embl.de) and STITCH (http://stitch.embl.de) databases, and it currently contains over 1.5 million proteins from 373 organisms and 4.3 million small molecules. The entire 18 GB dictionary is kept in RAM to enable fast tagging. This has been added to Biological Informatics Subject Tracer™ Information Blog.

Lexxe: Search Engines That Answers Exact Queries http://www.lexxe.com/ Founded in 2005, Lexxe Pty Ltd developed a third generation Internet search engine with advanced Natural Language Processing technologies. Thier initial research and development of the search engine dates back to October 2004, with the help of a number of supportive individuals. Lexxe is based in Sydney, Australia. "Lexxe", /leksI/ or pronounced 'leksi', our company name, is derived from a linguistic term "Lexical", which means "related to words". It emphasises the processing of language from the level of words and the meanings associated with them, which is a core issue for Lexxe. Lexxe has been exploring more intelligent ways to find information for users in a more meaningful way. They believe this method will eventually bring far more accurate and relevant search results than the current search technology.

Market Potential Index for Emerging Markets 2008 http://globaledge.msu.edu/resourceDesk/mpi/ Global marketing is becoming more and more important along the years with the increasing trend in internationalization. Having too many choices, marketers face the challenge of determining which international markets to enter and the appropriate marketing strategies for those countries. The focus of this study is ranking the market potential of countries identified as "Emerging Markets" by The Economist magazine. These emerging economies comprise more than half of the world's population, account for a large share of world output, and have very high growth rates; all indicators of enormous market potential. This indexing study is conducted by MSU-CIBER to help companies compare the Emerging Markets with each other on several dimensions. Eight dimensions are chosen to represent the market potential of a country over a scale of 1 to 100. Each dimension is measured using various indicators, and are weighted in determining their contribution to the Overall Market Potential Index.

Awareness Watch™ Paper Review

Where Is the cloud? Geography, Economics, Environment, and Jurisdiction In Cloud Computing by Paul T. Jaeger, Jimmy Lin, Justin M. Grimes, and Shannon N. Simmons http://www.uic.edu/htbin/cgiwrap/bin/ojs/index.php/fm/article/view/2456

Abstract: Cloud computing – the creation of large data centers that can be dynamically provisioned, configured, and reconfigured to deliver services in a scalable manner – places enormous capacity and power in the hands of users. As an emerging new technology, however, cloud computing also raises significant questions about resources, economics, the environment, and the law. Many of these questions relate to geographical considerations related to the data centers that underlie the clouds: physical location, available resources, and jurisdiction. While the metaphor of the cloud evokes images of dispersion, cloud computing actually represents centralization of information and computing resources in data centers, raising the specter of the potential for corporate or government control over information if there is insufficient consideration of these geographical issues, especially jurisdiction. This paper explores the interrelationships between the geography of cloud computing, its users, its providers, and governments.
