Let us Begin

Hi Everybody,

This blog will discuss many things. It will contain opinions which are solely my own and do not reflect any company or companies that I am working for currently or have worked for in the past.

Some of these views may be a little "off-the-wall", but hey, you have to take a chance if you want to change anything; am I right or am I right?

Thoughts for the Day

I was in London, England 3 weeks ago presenting at an EA conference when the following idea occurred to me:

There are 3 types of information an individual is aware of.
  1. First, is the information an individual knows,
  2. Second, is the information the individual knows he/she does not know
  3. And third is the information the individual does not know he or she knows.

Draw this as a pie chart and it in obvious with 3. being the largest.

Now, I also know as I get older that I know that there is a lot of information I do not know and even more information I don't know I don't know.

Rememeber that the amount of information produced by humanity doubles every year.

Does this mean that when I die I will esentially know nothing?

Just a thought,

Wes
