  Friends - I got this from Wired-MT, and thought it would be of interest.  Have a 
great "end of the week."  Don't forget to SPRING AHEAD on Sunday!

FYI - http://credibilitycommons.org/

Centers around the issue of improving access to credible information on the
World Wide Web. 

In case you haven't seen this, two institutions have come together to help
researchers and others find credible sources of information. (The two
institutions are ALA & University of Washington.)

From their Web site:

"The Credibility Commons is an experimental environment enabling individuals
the opportunity to try out different approaches to improving access to
credible information on the World Wide Web. Tools will be provided to
researchers as well as the public, allowing them to try out search
strategies, collections and other approaches to improving access to credible
information. The Commons can be viewed as a collaborative space in which to
share ideas, data sets, results and innovations. This project is sponsored
by the MacArthur Foundation who is deeply invested in improving access to
credible information on the World Wide Web."
