Air Force Backs Blog Study
The Air Force thinks there might be some nuggets of information in these little things called "blogs." The Air Force Office of Scientific Research has given Versatile Information Systems Inc. of Framingham, Mass., $450,000 for a three-year project called, "Automated Ontologically-Based Link Analysis of International Web Logs for the Timely Discovery of Relevant and Credible Information." The idea, the Air Force says, is to develop a tool to figure out what information flying around in the blogosphere at any given moment in time is actually important. Good luck with that.
