 * Q1 - How would you define your problem of Filter Failure?


 * Define the Problem:**
 * How do you **organize** the information so you can disseminate it to lots of different people and it is easily **retrievable**?
 * How do we filter not only for ourselves, but also for others?
 * The challenging of knowing which role you want to play when you are aggregating information - to be a leader, a follower, a lurker, a participant?
 * How do we disseminate information to a DIVERSE group of constituents who are sometimes not as techno-literate as we are?
 * How to tap into unabridged sources that haven't been pre-screened.
