For those who want to do some forecasting of high uncertainty events, we’ve added a new page for software. Free software, too.
We’ve added Getty, they have part of their collection online.
Getty Research Institute – http://www.getty.edu/research/library/ – The Getty Research Institute library collections include over one million books, periodicals, study photographs, and auction catalogs as well as extensive special collections of rare and unique materials. Focusing on art history, architecture, and related fields, they begin with the archaeology of prehistory and extend to the contemporary moment.
Getting sources of Data is always a problem when tackling a statistical or data mining project. Here are two very nice deep web assets:
http://databank.worldbank.org/data/home.aspx – Speciality statistical data on all kinds of subjects, from countries GDP to levels of blindness.
http://www.quandl.com/ – An awesome collection of 9,000,000 of financial, economic, and social datasets.
Added http://www.scirus.com
for academic search docs, pointed out to me by a user
and a military hardware site http://semanticommunity.info
Was shown a nice search engine for embedded, zipped, or otherwise obscured files.
Looks in FTP, zip, RAR and other formats.
Also added the National Security Archive
