  • A integrated system that auto-curates social media (Twitter, Google+, Facebook etc.) to provide topic advice from experts as judged by the crowd in order to spark insight and action. A collaboration with American Public Media's Public Insight Network, potentially in conjunction with the Nevada Media Alliance and the Nine Network Town Square initiative in St. Louis.

The Insight Into Action Engine is a tool / process for communities and the media that cover them.

It allows invited curators to:

  • Efficiently follow the zeitgeist of the community (e.g. a 'newswire' of aggregated real-time web activity)
  • Engage with each other, converse, and focus attention around specific stories that curators are interested in.
  • Surface those stories that are most actively discussed/reinforced.
  • Propose one or more 'calls to action' as a consequence of a particular story (e.g. raise money for further investigation, air the story on television ....)

Our initial vision is to rapid-prototype it by plugging together existing components:

  • The invited curators would be bootstrapped using the Public Insight Network.
  • The 'zeitgeist/newswire' would be provided using Sociative's R88R ('radiator') technology which distills hourly feeds, ranked for relevance, of the activities of those real-time web users who are most relevant to the community.
  • The engagement/conversation would be a simple commenting system attached to every story in the newswire
  • The most important stories would be surfaced by simple heuristics for 'trending' such as most heavily and recently commented on
  • The 'call to action' for a story could be a link to a fundraising page on Spot.us, or a 'contact us' form that media producers could give curators to suggest stories to cover.

Below is an example of a newswire related to 'Food'

The influencer bar across the top shows the 'Food' influencers being watched/aggregated.
