Drive in this morning listing to Harvard Business IdeaCast 180: Better Decisions Through Analytics

I love these podcasts as they always make me think. My reflection on
listing to Tom is one that says if we reduce everything to data and
analytics - where is the gut feel, where is the innovation, where is
entrepreneurship. Data drives out risk. Risk builds business and destroys
them. When I think about My Digital Footprint - this becomes an interesting
paradigm. I spend my time looking at the value of the data that comes from
you and I and how it relates. I spend time in the book on adding colour
from your social graph to remove the focus and impersonal world of only
telling you what you tell me - but where is the risk?
