"Sir, we need this information to serve you better / improve our services / send you special offers."

I am just trying to buy batteries. I dont want to give you my zip code.

But, when the day comes and I need to be served better, access an improved service or receive a special offer, there is no way for me to retroactively provide my data. No way for me to say: "here, this is my data, I am in the market for this, do your best, you have 2 hours".

Because today, I either give my data or I dont. But, like I just said, I dont want to give my data, I want to give access to my data. I want to scan my fingerprint and have my server send the data.

Why? Cause it's MY data.

hi

I am Pierre-Guillaume Wielezynski. I live in Washington, DC. I work at the World Bank, in the Corporate Communications Department. My work is related to analytics, advertising and social media. This personal blog is my only new year resolution (2006) and I am doing a really poor job at maintaining it.

personomies

Personomies are digital manifestations of an individual. They combine identity (who you are), activity (what you do) and "sociality" (who you know)...more

The BuzzMonitor

The BuzzMonitor is an application I have conceived for my employer that allows to better track and understand who says what about whatever issue online. It helps you build vertical views of the web. It is so useful that we released it in open source. See it, try it, get it.

guess what

This blog does not reflect the position or opinion of my employer. But I'm working on it. No, seriously, it does not. But you knew that.
