What is big data?:
This is a great presentation explaining what big data is. One thing it proves is that nobody can agree what is meant by Big Data. Adopt this definition and the only folk that will really care about Big Data are companies like Amazon, Google, Facebook et al that deal with those sorts of volumes.
For the rest of humanity - and business- the term Big Data means something broader - basically the notion that there is 'lots of data out there and if you could harvest it and make sense of it using operational analytics tools like natural language search and data visualization tools then BOY DOES IT BECOME INTERESTING (to some people).
