Scheduled in Room 101 at #FedGIS yesterday. Whether or not the presenters inflicted torture per George Orwell's famed room of the same name is only going to be revealed in post-conference surveys. We're in the safer Room146A today. See you there 1:45pm for more Map Wizardry.

Guess who just got back today
Them wild-eyed boys that had been away
Haven't changed, had much to say
But man, I still think them cats are crazy

The boys are back in town... so join us at #FedGIS this week for mappy fun!

In what alternate universe does getting rid of talented journos and so many graphics and dataviz experts make sense? Shocking from the owners. Lots of talent now available to be snapped up, and I hope they are, including friends, highly respected experts and colleagues of mine in the community.

How to stay focused โ€” by the top neuroscientist Constantly distracted? Our ability to concentrate is declining. Dr Sabina Brennan on what we can do to sharpen our brains

Fascinating article includes the line "If we get 60 emails a day and read each one the second our phone dings, that means weโ€™d spend a full hour a day working with the brain capacity of an 11-year-old" I hope that explains why I ignore most of mine ๐Ÿคฃ www.thetimes.com/article/fa83...

Well this is rather nice... the powers that be have decided on a small promotion and added the word "Distinguished" to my job title at work. I will be double checking they didn't mean "Extinguished" ๐Ÿคฃ
