AnalyticBridge Newsletter - February 2009

• A few popular groups have new icons, including
  • Quant Entrepreneurs,
  • R-Project and Other Free Software Tools,
  • R-Packages (Statistical Computing),
  • Health Care-Fraud-Abuse, and
  • Open Source Data Mining.

• On the front page, we now display groups with the latest activity, rather than large featured groups. This gives each group an oppotunity to be noticed, avoiding large groups to become larger and larger at the expense of smaller groups.

• New groups recently created: Indian Statistical Institute, Epidemiology/Health Services Research, Good News and Quantitative Risk Management. Visit www.analyticbridge.com/groups to check our 102 groups.

• Member of the Month: our $250 monthly award was offered to John Morrison. John contributed to several forum discussions in January (in particular about the economic crisis), posted several blogs, created a great profile and published in our white paper group, and recruited a few high quality members. John is a Solution Architect in the Risk Management space. He is Director, Solution Partnerships of Union Legend SA and an advisor to REvolution Computing.
