People Smarter Than Me: Matthew Hurst
« Wonder Brand Powers... Activate! | Main | Wonder Brand Powers Excercise for the Reader »I've been meaning to point folks to Matthew
Hurst's Data Mining blog for some time. Matthew is a research
analyst scientist for Intelliseek/BlogPulse and his blog is filled with
brilliant bits on GIS, data mining blogs, data mining in general and
his seeming endless stream of insightful random thoughts about
information and analytics. He graciously mentioned my recent
analysis of theiTunes
4.9/Podcast thing today and the least I can do is return the
favor. Unlike me, Matthew actually knows what he's talking about.
He also mentioned another guy doing BlogPulse analysis - "James Fee at Spatially Adjusted (profile) looks at the impact Google's mapping applications have had on buzz about GIS and ESRI." An interesting post.
[UPDATE: From Matt via email - "We do actually have people at Intelliseek who are titled analyst versus those of us at the R&D lab who are generally called research scientists." I'm not sure if I insulted the scientists or the analysts but either way, I'm sorry - it won't happen again. Regardless of what they call you, keep up the good work. -Matt (uh, Galloway, that is)]
