SIIA Content Forum

The last few months have been very busy for myself and the staff here at SLA HQ.  Annual Conference is fast approaching and I have been traveling around and talking to stakeholder groups as well as SLA chapters and divisions. It is great to connect with members and other friends of SLA in this way and I can't wait to see everyone in Denver in a few days.

On April 17, I gave the keynote speech at the closing session of the Software and Information Industry Association (SIIA) Content Forum conference in San Francisco. One purpose of my speech was to encourage companies providing information software and technology to collaborate with information professionals on the development of the next generation of information products and services.  Thanks to good folks over at SIIA for posting the video of me speaking at their closing general session.   

It is important that we keep this conversation going in order for both sides to be successful in the future. So thank you, again, to SIIA for the opportunity to come speak to their conference attendees.

I am a newcomer to SLA, the annual conference and blogging and I am very excited about the value I have been getting from the convergence of all of these "experiences".

The reason I am blogging today is that I am trying to find the graph showing the correlation between number of news articles on global warming over the last year and the dramatic growth of CO2 concentration in the atmosphere that was shown in the introduction to the Al Gore Keynote address at the conference.

If anyone knows how I could get a copy of those charts, could you overlaying charts, could you post it and email the information to me at eacorley@aol.com?

Best,
