The American Society for Information Science and Technology's Special Interest Group for International Information Issues (SIG-III) proudly introduces its blog as a means for communicating more actively with members, colleagues, and others interested in information science. The blog may be found here:
http://www.neasist.org/icisc/blog/ In connection to this year's Global Information Village Plaza, which will convene during the ASIS&T Annual Meeting, our blog hosts a discussion on trust in information – specifically on how information professionals and members of a general public judge the authority of the information they receive, and how perceptions of trust change in different cultural contexts. The discussion is broken down into six categories: - How do we define trust? - How do we measure trust? - What aspects of trust, such as privacy or data harvesting, are most significant? - e-commerce and data mining - Government surveillance - Government censorship The discussion of these aspects of trust has been lively, and we invite you to participate. We welcome any and all comments and thoughts you may have, and would love to have you contribute them to our discussion. On our blog you will also find information relating to the International Calendar of Information Science Conferences (ICISC — icisc.neasist.org), as well as information relating to SIG-III activities and current international information issues. We welcome your views! Thanks for taking a look at the blog and for contributing your thoughts! The SIG-III Blog team
