Mon équipe n'a pas d'idées: comment susciter sa créativité L'inventivité, ça se cultive. Et c'est bien le rôle du manager de constituer un terreau favorable pour que chacun se sente autorisée à émettre des propositions. Créer un climat positif, instaurer des rituels décalés, casser les codes de l'ordinaire en douceur amènera les uns et les autres sortir du ronron quotidien tout en les rassurant. Sept pistes à explorer pour y parvenir. 1. "Ce n'est pas le moment !" 2. Montrez l'exemple en étant imaginatif. 3.Prévoir un temps et un espace dédiés Google ou la Française des Jeux (FDJ) ont des lieux ouverts consacrés à la créativité. 4. Croiser les hommes et les métiers fait jaillir des illuminations. 5.Lancer le blog ou la newsletter d'équipe Un journal sur l'intranet est un espace de libre expression pour les collaborateurs. 6.Solliciter des rapports d'étonnement Si vous faisiez vôtre un usage courant avec les stagiaires? 7.Offrir un "ticket" culturel Il s'agit de pousser les salariés à s'ouvrir à d'autres univers.
News.me for iPhone Makes Friends the Editors of Twitter & Facebook News.me launched its free iPhone app this morning, which introduces Facebook integration, a saved offline reading list that syncs with the iPad app and Instapaper, and new, simple social dynamics of its own. It digests the links shared by Twitter and Facebook contacts, checks Bit.ly for their popularity, and presents a list of the top news stories in a clean, readable environment. And now, within the News.me network, there is also a menu of simple, text-based reactions: "Ha!" "Wow" "Awesome" "Sad" "Really?" News.me has undergone several transformations, from an in-house New York Times experiment to a standalone Flipboard competitor on the iPad. Personal review time: I have such an established workflow for reading news that I never expect to get much out of a social filtering app like this. I didn't use the News.me iPad app, but I liked it. I follow lots of news people on Twitter, several are on News.me, and I can follow them within the app. This monster team is in an enviable position.
Fight-or-flight response Physiology[edit] Autonomic nervous system[edit] The autonomic nervous system is a control system that acts largely unconsciously and regulates heart rate, digestion, respiratory rate, pupillary response, urination, and sexual arousal. This system is the primary mechanism in control of the fight-or-flight response and its role is mediated by two different components.[6] Sympathetic nervous system The sympathetic nervous system originates in the spinal cord and its main function is to activate the physiological changes that occur during the fight or flight response. Parasympathetic nervous system The parasympathetic nervous system originates in the spinal cord and medulla and works in concert with the sympathetic nervous system. [edit] The Fight or Flight Response Function of physiological changes[edit] The physiological changes that occur during the fight or flight response are activated in order to give the body increased strength and speed in anticipation of fighting or running. Notes[edit]
Can News.me become the Instagram for news? We’ve written before about the overwhelming tsunami of content that digital media represents, especially the firehose that comes from Twitter and Facebook, and how this makes it even more imperative that users have some kind of filter or curation system. News.me is one of the services that is trying to solve that problem, but it wants to do more than just filter and recommend: the startup’s new iPhone app is designed to be like an Instagram for news — in other words, a smaller network of friends and connections with whom you want to discuss the latest headlines or events. The question for News.me is whether that’s what news consumers want, and even if they do, whether they won’t just use Twitter or Facebook instead. News.me has an interesting history: It started as a skunkworks project inside the New York Times — an attempt on the part of a couple of NYT developers to come up with a way of filtering Twitter based on a user’s social network.
Carte heuristique Carte heuristique dessinée pendant un exposé. Une carte heuristique[1], carte cognitive, carte mentale[2], carte des idées ou encore schéma heuristique, est un schéma supposé refléter le fonctionnement de la pensée, qui permet de représenter visuellement et de suivre le cheminement associatif de la pensée. Le terme anglais mind map est également parfois utilisé en français. Cela permet de mettre en lumière les liens qui existent entre un concept ou une idée, et les informations qui leur sont associées. La structure même d'une carte heuristique est en fait un diagramme qui représente l'organisation des liens sémantiques entre différentes idées ou des liens hiérarchiques entre différents concepts. À l'inverse du schéma conceptuel (ou « carte conceptuelle »[3]), les cartes heuristiques offrent une représentation arborescente de données imitant ainsi le cheminement et le développement de la pensée.

News.me Is Building A News Social Network Within Its New iPhone App News.me, the news service developed in The New York Times’ R&D labs and incubated at betaworks, is launching its iPhone app today. A bit unusually, the part of the app that you’ll use first may actually be the least interesting. In some ways, the new app is just a redesign of what News.me was already offering through its iPad and email products — a list of news stories, pulled from your Facebook and Twitter streams, then curated based on signals from Twitter and bit.ly, and presented with the context of the initial tweet or Facebook comment. I’ve played with the app, and as a straightforward, curated newsreading service, it’s already pretty useful. To make things easier, you don’t even have to come up with a smart remark of your own. The hope, Levine says, is that users will download the iPhone app and immediately get use out of it through the curated news feed, then over time, build a smaller network of friends who they want to discuss the news with. You can download the app here.
Hands-on: News.me's iPhone app filters your friends' timelines for news Keeping up on the news items that your friends share on Twitter or Facebook can sometimes be a full-time job—especially if you have a full-time job and can't afford to stay on top of the interesting items your friends are linking to all day. Sure, you might add a couple to your Instapaper queue for later, but even just the act of digging through mountains of daily-life status updates for news from your friends can be a chore if you actually care about the links that they're sharing. Enter News.me, an online service that combs through your social network feeds and filters out the cruft to bring you a list of the most important news stories shared by the people you follow. Its genesis in 2011 was an idea out of the New York Times R&D lab that eventually bloomed into a full-on service. We decided to give the new iPhone app the quick hands-on treatment to see how well that idea really works on a 3.5-inch screen. There's a list of predefined reactions, or you can type your own.
If you have news, it will be aggregated and/or curated The Pew Research Center has come out with a massive new report on the state of media as part of its Project for Excellence in Journalism, and it comes to a number of conclusions about where the industry stands — including the fact that Twitter and Facebook are still driving a fairly small amount of traffic to media outlets (although this segment is growing quickly) and that tech giants like Google, Yahoo and Microsoft control almost 70 percent of online advertising. But one other thing that becomes clear from the Pew report is just how big a role aggregators of all kinds — both human and machine-powered — are playing in news consumption. Despite the growing evidence to the contrary, many newspaper companies and other traditional media outlets still seem to think the vast majority of their audience comes to them directly and prefers to read their content above all other sources. Aggregation is a way of life for more news consumers Social sharing is both an opportunity and a danger

Google I/O Fireside Chat: How Google is Pulling an Apple with Google+ One year in, Google is flying the banner of Google+ higher by the day. But what's next? Last week at Google I/O, the Google+ platform team met onstage for a fireside chat, fielding developer frustrations and hinting heavily at how Google's plans for its social network might be bigger than anyone had imagined. Here are some highlights from the Google+ Platform Team fireside chat. The talk, moderated by Google engineer David Glazer, was a summit between Google+ Circles engineer Joseph Smarr, VP of Product Management for Google+ Bradley Horowitz, and a few other members of Google's social side. With a patient, Apple-like eye for perfection, refinement and the big picture, the Google+ team discussed why it's handling its year-old social network with kid gloves. How Google+ Will Cure What Ails Google Google is big. Horowitz: "One of the things I think we could have done better at is thinking more holistically about an endgame. Why Developers Still Don't Have a Google+ API
We’re entering a golden age of news geekery Jason Calacanis announced a new proof-of-concept site called Launchticker today. At first glance it’s just an overloaded Google Doc with a bunch of tech news summaries and links streaming down the page. Look at the blog post explaining the site though and you’ll see there’s a lot more going on here. It’s an attempt to improve on the fabulous half-human/half-machine edited tech news site Techmeme. Specifically, by limiting the areas of editorial coverage to startups, technology and features – excluding a lot of financial news, hardware and maybe enterprise stuff. Just like Calacanis’s tech news site Launch helps pull in traffic that converts to promotion of his startup conference Launch, so too will this new tech aggregator serve as content marketing for other money-making business concerns. In the meantime…what a lot of fun! European news editor Robin Good used to write all the time about a concept he called Newsmastering. How many of these can prove as awesome as Techmeme?
