How, who or what do we train folks in CrisisData is backwards.

"At certain points in the cycle technology becomes inverted. Applications play second fiddle to frameworks until the frameworks no longer look and work as well as the new fine tuned applications. In the Ambient Cloud applications always play first violin because it's only the application that can carry out their objectives while tracking the ever changing generations of technologies and services.
Applications can't wait for standards bodies. Opportunity barely knocks at all, but it certainly hardly every knocks twice. If Facebook games are the new hotness then make that happen. If Facebook is old hat and iPhone social games are the new hotness then jump on that. It's the application's job to make the user not care how it's done. For this reason the dream of utility computing may never be fully achieved. The wide variety of different clouds and different compute resources will make it difficult to come up with a true standardization layer."  High Scalability Blog

This seems to me that this is the same conversation that we are having in the #smem, #certsmem #CrisisData world about setting standards for social media in emergency management.

I think that author Todd Hoff really broke down our issue as to what and where we need to focus our attention upon considering all of the this emerging crisis data came about without any input from the Emergency Management field.  EM's are the last players to the game.

So let's just adapt and move onwards. Because in the end it trains us and we have to keep adapting. IMHO The rest of the paper should be an eye opener for many if they haven't gotten too deep into Big Data.    

Considering Data is the New Oil, I think you will sooner then you think.
