Notas do Editor
- We always like to start with a vision!
- Why the elephant? I wanted to illustrate the lengthy and often tortuous public sector procurement process by comparing with something else that takes a long time. I guess I could have compared with time elapsed since the Big Bang and the creation of the universe, but that would have been blatant exaggeration, Hence I ’ ve compared the 9 months we spent in technology procurement + estimated time to deliver a first release of the product, a total of approximately 774 days with the gestation period of the Asian Elephant – 645 days (not to be confused with the gestation period for the African elephant of only 640 days!). The Knowledge Hub was originally spec ’ d in February 2009 and will have a first release in April 2011). I ’ ve nursed the product throughout this period and can vouch for the fact that public sector procurement takes longer than gestation of a baby elephant!
- Ok, the main purpose of the presentation.
- Wait to see if a sense of bewilderment on the faces of the audience.
- We all want to ensure we ’ re getting the best value for products that we buy. Fortunately there are quite a few price comparison website on the Internet we can use, e.g. supermarket.com. I ’ ve shown Aleksandr Orlov, the well-known personality who fronts the compare the meerkat/compare the market.com, which compare insurance prices across over 400 companies.
- Mots people have bought something from Amazon, and maybe looked at the reviews given to the various products as guideline before they buy. We tend to trust what other people (our peers maybe) have said about the product and use this information to help inform our buying decisions. We ’ ve also seen the Amazon recommendations – relevant to an item you have bought, or illustrating what other people have bought when they bought that particular product. Tripadvisor is another example of how we might want to use reviews by other people – in this case people who have been on the holiday you were thinking of booking, or have stayed at the hotel you are considering booking. Quite often we give greater weight to these ‘ real people ’ reviews than we do to the glossy travel brochures.
- Wikipedia is often the first place that people will go to to look up facts and information. It’s usually pretty-well up to date, mostly accurate and subject to the ‘million eyes’ concept for correcting any errors.
- The more information sources we use, the more we want to collect them together in one place. This shows Tweetdeck, which can aggregate and display lots of different feeds, e.g. from Twitter and Facebook.
- App stores are becoming ubiquitous following the trend set by the Apple iPhone app store. More and more vendors are using apps to deliver their products an to gain market penetration. This slides shows the iPhone app store, the Chrome app store from Google, and the data.gov.uk app store.
- Communities of Practice of flourished across many organisations over the past 5 years. None more so than the Local Government CoP platform, which was launched in late 2006 and now has over 80,000 users and over 1.500 communities, collaboratively working on anything from street lights to child care.
- But this (hugely successful) platform will end up being replaced by the Knowledge Hub. Why? Because the legacy platform makes it quite difficult to pull in and aggregate conversations from other sources, such as blogs and Twitter feeds. The consequence is that many of the CoPs function in their own silo ’ d community space and do not benefit from the broader discussions and opinions happening elsewhere. The new Knowledge Hub platform provides ‘ permeability ’ , enabling external feeds and conversations to simply and easily brought into the system, and better still, automatically attached to topics being discussed by the communities within Knowledge Hub.
- If we bring all of these components together, we begin to see what the Knowledge Hub is. It provides a rich set of features for encouraging collaboration and information sharing. It supports facilities for developing new apps, comparing and benchmarking data, and as a sector-wide knowledge repository. All of this is tied together using leading-edge semantic search capablilities.
- It ’ s a strange paradox that now we have the capability of easily creating new websites and blogs without the needs for any programing skills (and seeing the resultant proliferation of website across the Internet) that what we really want now is one place to see and interact with all of this.
- Brendan
- What is the USP for Knowledge Hub? Using ‘clever’ technology (semantic markup, automatic entity extraction and a ‘matching engine’ if you really want to know), the KHub will aggregate content from many different sources, e.g. blogs, tweets, websites and match these with user profiles, so that users get information pushed to them that is relevant to their job, their expertise or their location. It provides the filter and the lense on the information and knowledge assets referenced across the public sector (or other sectors if deployed there).
- These are the sort of questions that The Knowledge Hub will answer for our target audience. AMS-AAA123-20101005-
- Apps will change the way that we deliver some services, and offer a faster and cheaper route to market.
- On completion of the development, the Knowledge Hub code will be made available to the Open Source Software community under a GNU General Purpose License. This means local authorities (and other organisations) can deploy their own versions, e.g. as a replacement Internet (with no license costs to worry about!). Option 1, using the existing arrangement (i.e. hosted by LG Improvement and Development) has added benefit of hosting and support.
- Beta release in April. 3-4 releases between May and October to provide semantic search, app store, mashup centre.

- First glimpse of what the website looks like. Many changes anticipated as part of the User Experience work (we will be inviting delegates here to sign-up to one of the break-out sessions, and will be involving users from across the sector to help us get the design right).
- Three types of workspace with tools and features tailored to specific types of business activity
- Have you seen the human face yet?
