Everyday Decision Support and Information
TheInformedLife is an exciting new service that helps busy people make better decisions about how to spend their time each day. It uses the Internet to deliver the timely and relevant facts you need to have your day go more smoothly. It does this without advertising and other clutter. It is clean, accurate and simple.
"Technology, as always, is not the enemy. But clearly it always needs to serve us rather than the other way around. We have to determine our needs and our wants and values, and draw on technology accordingly." Reginald Bibby in 'The Boomer Factor'.
There can be a major gap between the extraordinary capabilities of the technology that powers us around the Internet and the quality and timeliness of much of the information we actually find using it. All too often our search takes us either to volunteer sources that are partial, incomplete and not kept up-to-date, or to cluttered professional sites with advertising and other sponsorship bias. Navigating through to find the facts we need can take more time than we are prepared to allocate.
This can be particularly frustrating when doing a fast search for information about such day-to-day and locally-focused needs as traffic and weather status or opportunities for relaxation and enjoyment.
Now the team at TheInformedLife offers users access to such need-to-know data both from your desk and on the go through whatever wireless device you use. We have developed a service that is cleaner, simpler, more accurate and more readable on any screen than any other aggregation of local content that we have seen. We call our product 'TheInformedLife' as it allows you to get more out of your limited personal time each day and week through better, faster information.
To put it together we created new ways of consistently compiling information from many places in our community into a quick-glance format. We've drawn together the latest in Internet technology with the goal of aggregating the most current data sources into a simple whole. And we've combined them intelligently and accurately in an easy-to-read manner.
If you live and/or work in the Greater Toronto Area this service will both save you time and ensure that, rather than toiling over looking things up, you are doing more of what you'd like to be doing . Through TheInformedLife BETA and TheInformedLife Mobile you can quickly check up whenever you want on such daily need-to-know items as air quality and weather, status of roads, transit and flights, breaking local, national and international news, and events and entertainments on throughout our region.
