Class 3 - Big Data & Bernt Wahl

[Fiance]

Hey Class,

I am excited to announce our third speaker Bernt Wahl. Bernt has been in the thick of silicon valley innovation since the beginning - having seen Jobs and Woz as they were building apple from the garage to being an engineering leader at InfoSeek, one of the earliest successful search engines.  He is well known as an entrepreneur, author, professor, and mathematician. Bernt is currently CEO Factle Corporation which focuses on specialized search and localized demographics. He is also a UC Berkeley Industry Fellow at the Fung Institute for Engineering Leadership where he teaches a Web 2.0 course. 

To kick things off, we'll be looking at Big Data which is one of Bernt's areas of expertise. To prepare for the class, check out an awesome article from today called People and Big Data: Separately Good, Together Great.

Go BIG or go home!

Hey Jeremy,

I am so sorry I was unable to attend class this evening, I was diagnosed
with a concussion earlier today and I have been in bed since I got home
and I just woke up. I definitely won't be missing any additional lectures,
and again I'm really sorry I missed this one.

Sincerely,
Faraz Fatemi

Faraz,

I just noticed this, it went to my spam filter a month ago, it looks like. Guessing it's the effects of the concussion? Sorry for not replying sooner. I have nothing to do with this class though.

Thanks, 

Jeremy
