Business Objects, a leading provider of Business Intelligence software, recently launched a community Web site called Insight. We had a good chat with some folks on the insight team on the phone recently. What is Insight?
"Insight is a new on-line community dedicated to those of us who want to use our passion for numbers to make a difference.
...
"The community is yours to build. Although Business Objects is sponsoring the launch of this site and expects to play a major role in building and sustaining it, it is by no means meant to be exclusive to Business Objects customers, partners, employees or friends and family. Anyone is free to join, including competitors of Business Objects."
There are a few Swivel visualizations featured at Insight right now, check them out.
Many groups are now working to make data more useful on the Web. Here is a list of the organizations we know about:
If we have missed anyone let us know.
