Hello,

We've got something special for you this week: We're proud to announce the
publication of a free new Radar Report. 'Data Jujitsu: The Art of Turning
Data into Product' is authored by DJ Patil. A founding scientist at LinkedIn
where his team pioneered the "People You Know" feature, Patil coined the
term "data scientist" and has since been instrumental in establishing and
codifying the profession. The new Radar Report offers invaluable information
for you and your colleagues.
