O informe Iberoamérica ante a Sociedade da Información, auspiciado polo Departamento de Análise e Prospectiva da Fundación France Telecom España, supón unha primeira aproximación ao grao de progreso das Tecnoloxías da Información e a Comunicación en Iberoamérica. O obxectivo primixenio e cardinal desta análise monográfica é o de reflectir a situación actual dos principais indicadores que definen o avance do desenvolvemento da Sociedade da Información en cinco países da rexión: Arxentina, Brasil, Chile, Colombia e México-.
Aínda que os gobernos destas nacións están a traballar para dar solución aos tres grandes desafíos que han de acometer nos albores do século XXI: paliar a Fenda dixital, desenvolver a Administración electrónica e conseguir unha industria do software competitiva a nivel internacional, o certo é que os indicadores que definen a SI reflicten que a converxencia cos países máis avanzados aínda está lonxe.
Unha vez demostrada a importancia político-estratéxica e económica da Sociedade da Información e do proceso de converxencia, resulta fundamental o papel dos gobernos dos países en vías de desenvolvemento. Para iso, as nacións obxecto deste estudo -e, por extensión, todas as da rexión iberoamericana- deberán acometer retos tales como mellorar o acceso cidadán ás TIC, superar a súa escasa capacidade en I+D ou a migración masiva de man de obra especializada.
A pesar do feito innegable de que os cinco países analizados -aínda que con grandes diferenzas entre eles atópanse aínda moi lonxe da converxencia con EEUU ou os países da Unión Europea, as taxas de crecemento dos principais indicadores e o apoio decidido dos gobernos á implantación das novas tecnoloxías permiten presaxiar unha diminución progresiva da distancia que os separa. O compromiso, a coordinación e a colaboración entre os distintos axentes implicados -a saber: os gobernos, as universidades, as empresas e a sociedade civil no seu conxunto- permitirán, se son aplicados dun modo frutífero a plena integración dos países do cono sur no novo contexto da Economía do Coñecemento

The people of Second Story has given a new point of view to the architecture of the information in the web with the interface designed for the Digital Vaults project , that counts on a vestibule where National Archives of the United States is stored more than 1200 documents. The proposal of this experience consists of relating documents - as photographies, images of documents and digitalized texts- of ways that are not usual with the final mission to approach part of the archives and documentary patrimony of the National Archives through this virtual exhibition to a public for whom, surely, it would happen unnoticed otherwise.
The user can accede to documents, to sail by them using itself the pre-established routes and to often know the unusual relations that the events narrated by those documents and the personages who carry out them establish to each other. If the user is looking for an own experience, also he can choose a departure point soon to mix the memories in the main panel, conceived as a table, where he will have the opportunity to choose elements and to see the type of relation that exists among them.
The Web site also allows the users to use the visual memories, to even do posters derived from the images and visual compositions, simultaneously that allow to keep consulted documents virtually and to create own collections.
