  IDFA - INFORM
INFORM is an IDFA initiative set up on behalf of UK infant formula manufacturers, namely SMA Nutrition, Cow and Gate, Milupa and Farley/Heinz, to promote a balanced view on infant feeding and to ensure that all parents are supported in their choice of feeding method.
INFORM fully supports breastfeeding as the best way to feed a baby but is concerned that mothers should receive good advice and education on formula feeding.
INFORM was established in 1996 to encourage a greater understanding of the needs and wishes of parents of newborn babies, to ensure that the information on infant feeding available to parents is of the highest possible standard, and to work towards a more balanced approach to infant feeding.

Their newest product, Inform Publisher Services, is aimed at big web publishers, and is designed to help them increase page views by adding relevant links to other, hopefully related, content in their archives.
Inform Publisher Services is entirely automated, and I’m sure they’ll tweak the algorithm over time to make it better.
The most significant change is that Inform is no longer operating within a “pop-up”, a process that allowed them to use Ajax functionality but avoid some of the drawbacks like lack of a “back button” feature.

 Inform (Beta) PC Magazine - Find Articles   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
One big difference between Inform and Google News is that when you click on a story in Google News, it launches you directly to the source news site, requiring you to click your browser's Back button to return to Google News.
Inform's practice of indexing content even on registration-only sites like The New York Times and other regional newspaper Web sites is both a blessing and a curse.
Another issue is that while Inform avoids duplication of Associated Press articles well (if there are 50 sites carrying the same AP story, Inform will only show one), it doesn't always attribute them properly; you might think you're reading something from Wired when in fact it's from the AP.

 Grand Text Auto » Announcing: Inform 7   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
The new system is in many ways more different from Inform 6 than OS 10 was from System 9: Code looks like natural language (like English prose, specifically), a new and well-crafted IDE from Andrew Hunter is provided, and numerous improvements to the language and world model have been incorporated.
This allows those not familiar with Inform to read and understand at least parts of an Inform7 program; it may even allow those not familiar with programming to understand parts of it.
But Inform 7 doesn’t figure out that Darcy is a man, because it doesn’t know about the social conventions implied by “Mr.” (or the wearing of top hats).
