That's an easy read, so I would also *highly* recommend Change the World: Silicon Valley transfers its slogans—and its money—to the realm of politics by George Packer in The New Yorker. |

It's a little bit long. Don't worry about the technical details; I chose this because it covers some of the same issues as text-based information retrieval systems, plus adds some extra dimensions. I also recommend watching this short video, which touches on some of the issues/challenges in organizing data for information retrieval: Jeff Jonas, "Big Data: The New Physics." http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g5Vx9GJX2s8 |
