I recently read Ambient Findability by Peter Morville. I want to encourage anybody with interests in geospatial technologies to read the book. Here's a previous review from Directions Mag and let's not forget the Very Spatial interview with Peter Morville. He also gave the keynote speech at GeoTec ealier this year. There was also this other interview along with Mike Liebhold. You can see also Peter's wikipedia entry and the findability.org website. The book is short and to the point, but very pertinent and even brilliant. From the O'Reilly description: "How do you find your way in an age of information overload? How can you filter streams of complex information to pull out only what you want? Why does it matter how information is structured when Google seems to magically bring up the right answer to your questions? What does it mean to be "findable" in this day and age? This eye-opening new book examines the convergence of information and connectivity."
