believed that the best way to promote their unemployment insurance was from person to person. I never imagined that their customers seek on the Internet. However, the division insurance sales and services retail chain Falabella Chile analyzed the behavior of users on your website and found that unemployment insurance-the most massive of its portfolio, were among the most popular.
After that, provided more information on the product page and a lower response time requirements. "If you know in detail what the client looks you can make continuous improvements to the site," says Paul Hoffenberg, Head of Business Intelligence Falabella Pro
is what experts in search technology called the "User Revolution": the customers interact more and more web pages and business advantage information left to give them exactly what they want, which is increasing the profitability of search.En Falabella Pro-with operations in Chile, Argentina, Peru and Colombia decided to take this step early last year when it expanded its product offering , ranging from plumbing to legal advice. This necessitated a more precise search and delivery of information to consumers. For this, Falabella
Pro works with Google Enterprise, the Google Enterprise division, and the software developer Tigabytes Chile, which implemented the Google Mini, a solution that integrates software and hardware based on the same technology that occupy millions of users Internet daily as "Google." This is a box that connects to the server of the company, with over 220 different file formats and can seek information in a database of up to 300,000 documents. "Google annexed world billions of documents and companies are five times more data," said Clifton Ashley, director of Google Enterprise. "Employees spend at least 25%, 30% of the day looking for information and is frustrating for them when they find it."
Besides the Google Mini in Falabella Pro work with Google Adwords and Google Analitycs, which allow further analysis of user behavior on your website. "We have a 360 degrees and track customer to offer more services and track their contributions, "says Sanborn is doing similar Hoffenberg.Algo, of Mexico's Grupo Carso, for their commercial and music stores Mixup. Last year, installed the Google Search Appliance, the Google search box for larger projects that can search up to 15 million documents, and 90% reduced response times.
"A lot of online shopping is impulsive and the others are searching" says Ariel Solorio, multimedia manager of Sanborn. "If the search is slow or does not give reliable results, the client is going." In addition to expediting this, Sanborn wants customize their services according to customer needs.
Find what, how and when to seek search has become part of the most important data for analyzing customer behavior. "The intelligence business intelligence, data management, is what companies do in-house and is going to the website and the search is moving from the web to businesses," said Denise Damiani, an analyst at Accenture Mexico.
This phenomenon occurs not only in business. In Mexico, the Federal Institute of Access to Public Information (IFAI) has developed a digital system and access search to find data such as contracts and salaries public officials with a quicker response time. In addition, the user can navigate in the registry of responses to previous questions. IFAI
works with the Norwegian company Fast-recently acquired by Microsoft, which provides enterprise search systems. Offers software that makes it "findable" what should be "hidden" and you have to be protected. "With Fast can search among more than 280,000 responses already made," says Alfredo Méndez, Director General of Information and Systems IFAI, Mexico City, who says that IFAI has recorded six million hits last year, when he inaugurated the service.
To Geraldo Stein, vice president Fast for Latin America, the key for success is a customized search interface even consider facing the user. "This allows lower costs, increase revenues, gain better control of information and greater transparency and security," says Stein. After being acquired by Microsoft, Fast hopes to use its extensive sales network, while the multinational Bill Gates wants to use the Fast technology experience to enter a market that had no presence. As said Jared Spataro, responsible for Enterprise Search at Microsoft, in a presentation: "The user experience in future will be defined and shaped by the search." And obviously the tech giant does not want to be out.
Find what you need even before knowing that is required has acquired such importance that the search systems include any type of information: text, pictures, videos, presentations, internet and telephone conversations, among others. No one and nothing is saved. On the other hand, the systems also evolve. The platform Idol, the British firm Autonomy, interrelates different sources and allows you to find information regardless of it containing the "keyword" search, provided we do not relate to the concept. For example, searching for "home", you can get information "persons living in a home."
"80% of corporate information is unstructured and businesses today that is critical," said Fernando Castellanos, Autonomy's vice president for Latin America.
The phone company Vivo Brazilian Fast platform has allowed them to optimize their competitive intelligence. With this tool have been able to organize the department's database of market intelligence, with a greater amount of information and involvement of more users can enter content from different areas of the company. And at the same time, those who require market data, consumption and competition can access them, obviously with different levels of access. "Independent research became integrated," explains Daniel Baima, manager of Intelligence and Market. "The connection between scattered information allows us to better conclusions and actions."
As these companies have experienced it: the power is on the user side and if you do not have the required information, or even think twice before making a new click and turn the page.

image editing and animation on GNU / Linux
Much of how much there in terms of specific technical tools for design, image editing and animation on GNU / Linux. All credit
the following summary for itookmyprozak in post adlszone
"this text is not intended as a comprehensive overview of image editing software in GNU / Linux. relate only then it can serve the 'average user' to interest in this area, providing a general idea of \u200b\u200bit. "
Misfit Model 3D
OpenGL is a 3D model editor that works with triangle models. It supports scripting, simple texturing, animation, and a plugin to add new models and types of image filters. Intended result easy to use and to facilitate the expansion of its capabilities with the possibility of including new plugins and scripts.
This program is cross platform and has been tested in 2.4 and 2.6 kernels and GNU / Linux more widely used.
Your home is misfitcode.com . Offers (Inglés) information on installation, downloads section models and scripts for the program, FAQ, a forum and links to download the program (for GNU / Linux we download the file. Tar.gz and follow the instructions described here). The full list of the features of Misfit Model 3D is this (enlglish).
Blender
There should be across the globe who are dedicated to modeling and 3D animation and you do not know this program. Aims to be a serious alternative to business applications from other platforms. This causes the functionality we find very difficult to manage along with other available to the novice user.
Blender is a multi-platform (Linux x86-32, x86-64 Linux, FreeBSD, Solaris, Linux PPC, Irix, Mac OS X and Windows) open source 3D design, animation and rendering image.
The number of choices you will find the new user to run this program for the first time can be overwhelming. But it's just overwhelming the amount of information available online about this application, dedicated forums, blogs, how-to's and manuals extensive, demonstration videos and much more.
Blender offers a number of tools for geometric modeling, polygonal meshes, video-animation (in the broadest sense of the word), 3D game engine, collision detection (for games), application of image filters, timeline, changing lighting, etc.. Detailed explanation (Inglés) of its functionality .
The official homesite and section downloads. But, as noted, there are many more websites and English on Blender. Search google or start here: bender manual in English. Wings 3D
Following 3D design software, Wings3d OpenGL is a technical tool for designing end dimensional shapes. These might be created with other programs like 3D Studio or Adobe Illustrator and then imported into Wings3D, for a perfect finish converting such imported polygon mesh models and then apply polygonal subdivisions.
with Wings3D We apply textures, colors, lighting, materials, etc. This tool is designed to work with 3D images, but unable to perform video-animations .
is cross-platform (GNU / Linux, Mac and Windows) and its official website (Inglés) offers, besides the usual download section, a help forum, bugtracker and chat. It also has its corresponding website in English , forum and help section.
Art of Illusion
The name of the program is pretty self explanatory. This is an application of 3D modeling, animation and rendering of images, cross-platform (GNU / Linux Mac OS X and Windows), written entirely in Java and open source . For the features it offers, can be used for domestic and / or professional.
Art of Illusion includes the usual tools for this type of software, namely, texture editor, scripting , changing lighting and shadows, polygon modeling, creation of structure (' skeleton'), etc. .
Your web is truly complete, an "all in one" (Inglés): section 'downloads ' manuals, FAQ, Forum, bugs, etc. In addition, there wealth of information on the Internet (without reaching the amount of Blender), you can start this web (Inglés) including manuals, galleries, scripts, plugins, wiki, textures, etc., or this forum.
K-3D
Another great tool for 3D image design, and as is customary in the GPL licensed software, there is abundant information about its use in your own web program manuals, examples, video tutorials, galleries (and video gallery), FAQ, plugins, etc.
With k3d we encourage them to design 3D shapes later. Dev is a free software application for modeling and animation, to render system (motor Renderman), available for GNU / Linux, Mac OS X (unstable), BSD (not tested), Solaris (not tested) and Win32.
team K-3D is recommended to include the program, the Aqsis render engine, we link here. K-3D
includes default models with which we can start working when you do not want to create figures from the beginning (Polygon polygon).
As reported on its website, you can add multiple plugins to grant the application of more features. Of Indeed, this is one of the points that characterized the program: the ability to go further expand capacity in the form of plugins. We
detailed explanation of the program's ability here (features). The download section is it.
Gimp should not be using GNU / Linux, at least, has not heard anything about this great program. Recently released its latest development version (v.5) and the latest stable version is 2.4.
Gimp (GNU Image Manipulation Program) is an image editing program, free, GPL licensed, cross-platform (GNU / Linux, FreeBSD, Solaris, Windows and the latest versions of Mac OS X ).
has always claimed to be valid and free alternative to Photoshop, clearly dominant in the professional digital image editing. With this aim has been increasing the number of features with each release. We anticipate from this article that GIMP comes with a set of tools for manipulating images really complete: handling of layers, colored, cloning, scripting , possibility to add plugins , combining images, scale them and a long etc.. There
lot of information online (and English) on the use of this program. Actually, you want to start it in the field of digital editing image with Gimp it is really easy thanks to the many aid offers Network: forums , tutorials , video tutorials, FAQ's, galleries, plugins , etc. .
The official web Gimp in English and in English , the download section offers packages for GNU / Linux more widespread. For distributions that have package manager, find this program in the repositories.
* Additional Note: the project Gimshop aims to facilitate the transisicón from Photoshop to Gimp offering the possibility to install in it an interface similar to Photoshop. Inkscape
is a vector graphics editor open source GPL license. Users of Windows platform programs such as Freehand, CorelDraw or Adobe Illustrator will find it really useful and above all, they look similar.
Inkscape uses SVG (scalable vector graphic) and, like their Windows counterparts, you can make forms, cloning, making blends, text, lines, layers, 'vectorization' of other files graphics, etc. Really practical tools on the Web.
can be imported to Inkscape EPS, JPEG, PNG, TIFF and postscript. Png format and exported to other vector formats. Report on its website that the main purpose of this application is to create a powerful drawing tool at the same time comfortable and compatible with XML, SVG and CSS2.
The main platform in Inkscape is running GNU / Linux, but there are versions for Windows and Mac OS X.
The user of this application messages usually find information and assistance by way of ads 'floating' ... really useful if 'rookie' with this program.
Your official website is available in English. We may find tutorials, galleries, wiki, forum, etc. In addition, a section of ' cases' which demonstrate the ability of Inkscape on several occasions.
His latest stable version is 0.46 and the download section it is . Pencil
is an open source program drawing and 2D animation, available for GNU / Linux, Mac OS X and Windows.
We
with Pencil drawing ' the old' , ie frame by frame to unite and form the desired animation.
Despite the simple interface provided by the program, is an application that offers advanced 2D drawing and animation. We can draw pictures with him as with his own hand.
To assist the work of animation, we will have in Pencil timeline to coordinate with our musical compositions or sound in general . After the animation you can export the product as a string of frames, mov or swf file.
In your website (Inglés) offer discharge zone, tutorials, manuals, galleries, links and forums (Inglés and Español). Synfig
continue with the drawing and 2D animation, now with Synfig. GPL licensed program, cross-platform (GNU / Linux, Mac OS X and Windows).
Synfig is a 2D vector animation application with which can create cinema-quality animations.
This is achieved by making available large numbers of herrameintas to draw and make the complex.
Synfig is possible to combine layers, apply effects of light and color, fast color pictures, frames, etc.. It is this latter tool pleases duced by industry professionals as not be coloring each of the 'frames' drawn.
your web is one of the most complete I've seen in terms of information offered and clarity of content, something really needed for those who started this program we will find, in addition to the downloads section , tutorials galleries, documents, videos from YouTube, Section 'videoplayer' for short animations made with Synfig, etc.
Ktoon
GPL 2D animation created by Toonka Films is say, which is created by animators for animators 2D, as they say on their website. Very good introduction for anyone interested in this field.
uses OpenGL and those who know Macromedia Flash Player or ToonBoom find a really similar program interface and, unlike other applications, Ktoon is currently available only for Unix platforms.
Ktoon has color mixing, animation layers, like Flash, has a timeline for animation.
The program's Web (Inglés, but the documentation is in English) offers galleries, tutorials, documentation, downloads section, under "the podium" (to show the best animations made Ktoon), forum, mailing lists, etc.
phototoxicity is a tool whose purpose is basically to edit photos taken with digital camera. We
touch with her some of the common faults on digital photos. We can remove red eye or blur, increase or decrease the brightness (even only a part of the photo), increase contrast, eliminate shadows, mix photos (High Dynamic Range), combine to create photographs 'Ultrawide', rotate , narrow, etc.
Your web is quite simple, offering only a brief description of the features of phototoxicity, a gallery, a manual in pdf (Inglés) and download link (. Tar.gz). This program is recommended for people without much experience in digital editing to retouch your photo gallery with a few clicks. "
POV-Ray
His reputation precedes him. This is another application well known by all design professionals and photo editing. While Blender features and lighting tools, POV-Ray raytracer is a program dedicated and truly complete .
is cross-platform (GNU / Linux, Mac OS X and Windows) is not free (though his sources are available under separate license POV-Ray) but is free.
POV-Ray (Persistence of Vision Ray-tracer) is a technical and management tool difficult, not because the program itself, but what can really do with it: if you're looking for perfection and 'hyper-realism "regarding 3D and lighting of your own, POV-Ray is your program.
This of 'hyper' is not a euphemism here: take a look at creations with POV-Ray finished and will cost at first glance, to distinguish between design 3D and photo.
Unlike other programs, POV-Ray does not have to use graphical interface. Interprets ASCII file extension. Pov that describe the 3D design. Unlike other 3D design software, POV-Ray is not his figures with triangles, but with different polygon objects: cylinders, cones, spheres, etc. all of them together to form the complete design. The file. Pov 'information' how to meet these geometric shapes, their position and how they interact.
official site in English : includes tutorials (beginner and advanced), gallery, tips, etc. The official English web section contains download the program.
Other similar programs are: KPovModeler (program to create and edit images POV-Ray in KDE) or YafRay ('raytracer' to get photorealistic images and animations.) The latter can be included as a plugin for Blender.
