Workshop Orientation

What is Social Search?

Search as if your colleagues were there to

answer and point to resources

Social Progressions

• Sparks: Ideas shared

• Campfire: Gathering of others with interests

• Bonfire: Broader interest gathering

• Torch: Honing for broad use and replication

Social captures all the information on the way

to the end result

This can be order of magnitudes more “stuff”

Today’s quick response is tomorrow’s golden nugget
