Social media is out of beta. We’re entering the era of validation. In the Validation Era, intimacy is in and publicness may be out - or at least on the decline. Quality is the new black. What this means that both individuals and businesses will need to increasingly work harder to earn their way in and remain in their stakeholders' circle of trust. During this session, Steve Rubel will explain how businesses can activate their domain-level experts to share their knowledge across four spheres of media – traditional, “tradigital,” owned and social.
A lot has changed since publishing my inaugural Design in Tech Tech report at SXSW last year. In this year's report, we dive deeper into analyzing some broader themes ranging from the record amounts of funding flowing into design-led startups to questioning how design will continue to evolve as a good business practice. Below are some takeaways from the report:
-Design isn’t just about beauty; it’s about market relevance and meaningful results.
-M&A activity continues in the design space, and it’s increased.
-Increasing the designers needed in the tech industry requires rethinking education.
-The adoption of design by public companies is only growing.
-Designers bring needed critical thinking/making in the economic case for inclusion.
-Work in the research labs from decades ago drives today’s startups. Be aware.
Digital Influence is one of the hottest trends in social media, yet is largely misunderstood. "The Rise of Digital Influence," the new report by Altimeter Group Principal Analyst Brian Solis, is a 'how-to' guide for businesses to spark desirable effects and outcomes through social media influence. The report helps companies understand how influence spreads, and includes case studies in which brands partnered with vendors to recruit connected consumers for digital influence campaigns. Brian evaluates the offerings of 14 Influence vendors, organizing them by Reach, Resonance, and Relevance: the Three Pillars that make up the foundation for Digital Influence as defined in the report. Also included are an Influence Framework and an Influence Action Plan to help brands identify connected consumers and to define and measure strategic digital influence initiatives.

Hi there! The CX Report is meant to be consumed in video form via my YouTube channel. So it doesn’t work well as a simple deck of slides. Because I encoded the video at 1080p on my YouTube channel, a screen-captured image will do fine for most needs. I guess that’s the challenge of making experiences — they’re best consumed in the format they’ve been created for, which in this case is in video form.
The YouTube link will explain the contents so it'll make more sense to you over there: https://youtu.be/Vd_ZBp3LUw4
Having participated in both SXSW and Cannes Lions Innovation festival this year, we've uncovered lots of insights on the current communications climate and have put together 9 trends which should serve as guidance for the areas to focus on in 2016.
In this issue of the People’s Insights monthly briefs, we cover three big innovations launched by Apple, Amazon and Google; three new approaches to Black Friday from TD Bank, Santander Bank and Patagonia; and two examples of upcycling by Southwest Airlines and Ben & Jerry’s ice cream. As a bonus, we also take a quick look at the immensely popular podcast Serial – which mashes-up different types of storytelling.
Here’s an overview of the examples featured in this report:
• Apple Pay – Simplifying mobile payments
• Amazon Echo – Virtual assistant for your home
• Google Inbox – A new way to Gmail
New approaches to Black Friday
• Santander Bank’s Black Tea Friday
• Patagonia and Yerdle’s Worn Wear swap parties
Upcycling & Paying it Forward
• Southwest Airlines’s Project LUV Seat
• Ben & Jerry’s The Chunkinator
Bonus! A new way to tell stories
• Serial Podcast
We’d love to hear your take on these approaches. Do share your thoughts with us at @PeoplesLab on Twitter. You can also reach out to us on Twitter @msl_group.
How Mobile Killed the Desktop: 33 Stats that Tell a StoryPlacester
It's no secret: mobile Internet traffic is growing, the number of folks who own mobile devices is growing, and more and more online consumers are seeking out mobile-friendly websites. A quick review of recent research data shows that the mobile revolution isn't some far-fetched piece of science fiction: it's happening NOW. If your business's website isn't optimized for mobile, you could be missing out on a ton of potential traffic, leads, and customers.
There was a time when SXSW set the agenda, but now it seems to reflect it.
Once a focal point of the digital design industry, the event has grown in size and ambition to become a forum for a wide variety of contemporary issues, seemingly random in nature and curated around no clear principles.
Havas has summarized some of the common key themes on display at SXSW, which were reflected more generally as societal trends.

The Little Blue Book of Social TransformationBrian Solis
Now is the time to get serious about social and put your business fully on the path to becoming a socially connected enterprise. This free ebook will show you how to get there with 20 short—but impactful—principles, like:
- Laying the groundwork for social success
- Turning weak ties into strong connections
- Creating a social listening center
Attracting new fans with social experiences
Soon you’ll be on the road to forging deeper relationships with customers and employees and greater relevance with social and traditional customers alike.
Many of the major disruptions in media and communications have been driven by nimble, entrepreneurial companies, coming out of nowhere to completely decimate established business models. Companies that spin into existence to solve one problem or commercialize a single idea can scale almost instantly if they find a solution that sticks. That’s what’s happening all over the marketing industry today: hundreds of tech-savvy startups are reinventing business from the bottom up.

Social networks in digital transformation - Why do companies/brands need to b...Self-employed
This thesis is about the use of social networks as a part of the digital transformation of a company or a brand.
The main point is to understand why do companies/brands need to be on social networks today and that the social networks are a real medium and need a dedicated budget, by analysing:
- How they can develop the e-reputation and awareness of a company,
- How they can increase the business,
- How they can recruit on it.
In the first part, you will understand what it is the digital transformation with the objectives, linked to social networks with the communities’ figures.
In the second part, you will see how E-team, the company where I work, has developed and extended its offer, what the job of Community Manager is and how the many possibilities offered by social networks correlate with the objectives of digitalization, with examples of what I have done at E-team.
For the third part, I will talk about the evolution of the Community Manager’s job and how it must evolve, the evolution of social networks thanks to startups and technological improvement.
All this to prove to the French people, companies and brands that social networks have to be considered in business strategy and that being Community Manager is a real job for not lazy people.

down oi 2001, it is easy to overlook the persistence and
rapid growth of c-btisincss throughotit the U.S. ecoiv
otny. While many high-Hying dot-com firms, includ-
ing Bcyond.com [2], Boo.cotn | 3 | , DrKoop.com [8],
Kozmo.com [1], atid Webvan |51 vanished, use of the
Iinertict as an essential business tool continued to grow
d ran lilt ically. At the peak of the e-business hype in
2000, most pundits ignored the tiascent efforts of large
IcgiKy firms, or those that existed before the advent of
e-business and had yet to
embrace the Net. A com-
mon mispcrception about
e-business was and still is
that you either got it or you
didnt get it. By definition,
flashy e-business purc-plays,
or the dot-coms, got it, and
except for a few visionaries,
legacy firms didnt. Ibday, legacy firms represent the
future ol e-busiiifss, and understanding e-business
from their perspective gives us a clearer picture of how
e-business will develop in the future. The online gro-
cers represent a clear example. I he pure-plays Home-
grocer and Webvan received enormous media attention
and heavy investment from venture capitalists. Today,
both arc out of business, while traditional British gro-
cer Tesco has emerged as the tnost successilil grocer
online.
When devising an e-business strategy for
legacy firms, be wary of the five myths of
e-business development white embracing
the five guidelines of managerial
responsibility and leadership.
T h e hype surrounding e-business has inspired a set
of myths about legacy firms and the nature of e-busi-
ness that might give tnanagcrs an oversimplified and
misleading view of the wired economy. Careful analy-
sis of the e-business initiatives and strategies of legacy
firms helps get us past the myths toward a more real-
istic perspective on e-business. It is far too early in the
liistory of the e-busines.s phenomenon to declare win-
ners and losers, but by reporting what is happening in
the field and challengitig the myths, we hope to give
niatiagers of legacy firms a
better picture of the strate-
gic choices available to
them in preparing their
organizations for e-busi-
ness and the key factors
they need to weigh when
making their decisions,
i he result is a clearer indi-
cation of what it takes to make sustainable use of the
Internet in business.

# Internet Security: Safeguarding Your Digital World
In the contemporary digital age, the internet is a cornerstone of our daily lives. It connects us to vast amounts of information, provides platforms for communication, enables commerce, and offers endless entertainment. However, with these conveniences come significant security challenges. Internet security is essential to protect our digital identities, sensitive data, and overall online experience. This comprehensive guide explores the multifaceted world of internet security, providing insights into its importance, common threats, and effective strategies to safeguard your digital world.
## Understanding Internet Security
Internet security encompasses the measures and protocols used to protect information, devices, and networks from unauthorized access, attacks, and damage. It involves a wide range of practices designed to safeguard data confidentiality, integrity, and availability. Effective internet security is crucial for individuals, businesses, and governments alike, as cyber threats continue to evolve in complexity and scale.
### Key Components of Internet Security
1. **Confidentiality**: Ensuring that information is accessible only to those authorized to access it.
2. **Integrity**: Protecting information from being altered or tampered with by unauthorized parties.
3. **Availability**: Ensuring that authorized users have reliable access to information and resources when needed.
## Common Internet Security Threats
Cyber threats are numerous and constantly evolving. Understanding these threats is the first step in protecting against them. Some of the most common internet security threats include:
### Malware
Malware, or malicious software, is designed to harm, exploit, or otherwise compromise a device, network, or service. Common types of malware include:
- **Viruses**: Programs that attach themselves to legitimate software and replicate, spreading to other programs and files.
- **Worms**: Standalone malware that replicates itself to spread to other computers.
- **Trojan Horses**: Malicious software disguised as legitimate software.
- **Ransomware**: Malware that encrypts a user's files and demands a ransom for the decryption key.
- **Spyware**: Software that secretly monitors and collects user information.
### Phishing
Phishing is a social engineering attack that aims to steal sensitive information such as usernames, passwords, and credit card details. Attackers often masquerade as trusted entities in email or other communication channels, tricking victims into providing their information.
### Man-in-the-Middle (MitM) Attacks
MitM attacks occur when an attacker intercepts and potentially alters communication between two parties without their knowledge. This can lead to the unauthorized acquisition of sensitive information.
### Denial-of-Service (DoS) and Distributed Denial-of-Service (DDoS) Attacks
