Peircers,
I've updated my Survey of blog and wiki posts related to
Peirce's theory of information. Discussion most welcome,
either here or on my blog.
Survey of Semiotic Theory Of Information • 2

This is a Survey ( http://inquiryintoinquiry.com/surveys/ ) of
previous blog and wiki posts on the Semiotic Theory Of Information.
All my projects are exploratory in essence but this line of inquiry
is more open-ended than most. The question is:
| What is information and how does it impact the spectrum
| of activities that answer to the name of inquiry?
Setting out on what would become his lifelong quest to explore and explain the “Logic of Science”, C.S. Peirce pierced
the veil of historical confusions enclosing the issue and fixed on what he called the “laws of information” as the
needed key to solving the puzzle. This was in 1865 and 1866, detailed in his lectures at Harvard College and the Lowell
Institute.
Fast forward to the present and I see the Big Question as follows. Having gone through the exercise of comparing and
contrasting Peirce's theory of information, however much it remains in a rough-hewn state, with Shannon's paradigm that
so pervasively informs the ongoing revolution in our understanding and use of information today, I have reason to
believe that Peirce's idea is root and branch more general and has the potential, with due development, to resolve many
mysteries that still bedevil our grasp of inference, information, and inquiry.
