NLC/MS Government 2.0 - Enterprise Social Networkingguestb5e7e1c
Enterprise Social Computing is all the rage in the world of intranets and portals. The rise of blogs and wikis on the Web has prompted governments across the globe to put these and other social tools to use behind the firewall.
Why?
• To harness, capture, and learn from the knowledge of its employees…especially those who will be retiring soon.
• Improve policy outcomes
• More efficient use of government information
• Streamline internal operations
• Attract top talent
• Greater transparency through information dissemination
Imagine if social networking tools like blogs and wikis could be used as a means of interaction by the federal government bodies. Governments could interact to a far greater extent with citizens as well as with internal and external resources.
Shannon Ryan, President and CEO of non-linear creations, who has cemented his position in an international network of internet authorities, and is a regular and reliable source of information for the media about web strategy, execution and metrics, will demystify the concepts surrounding social computing.
The presentation will:
1. Give the broader market context for the rise and popularity of social computing.
2. Show you how you can benefit from social computing in your space.
3. Give a real “how to start” road map for building the framework to benefit from social networking.
4. Provide some lessons learned already from clients in this new fast moving space.

Social media is a critical component in the B2B technology buying process. Buyers are increasingly turning to user-generated content and online recommendations to help make purchasing decisions. B2B technology marketers must leverage the power of social media to better meet the needs of potential buyers and build lasting business relationships.
In this webinar, Larry Weber of W2 Group, Dave Munn of the IT Services Marketing Association (ITSMA) and Pauline Ores of IBM discussed how B2B technology companies can effectively integrate social media into their marketing plans.
The Social Media Boot Camp for business discussion focusses on the major social media platforms and how businesses can best leverage the platforms to engage their audience in a meaningful way and grow their brand through meaningful interaction. Now that the search engines are considering social signals there is even more reason to engage with social media than ever before.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

2. “The Sucking Sound”
• Information Technology jobs are steadily being siphoned off
by other states
FLA, GA, VA, NC; even CA?
• IT Startups with MA roots are finding that with the reduction
in startup costs and current price deflation, MA location no
longer provides significant competitive cost advantage
• To counter this migration, MA state government should
create incentives specifically targeted towards startups with
potential to stay local and create IT jobs
Buzzient Confidential 2
3. Suggested Incentives
• To increase “stickiness” of MA-created startups, the following are
suggested:
Startup Tax Exemption for 3-5 years
Exemption from Workforce Training Fund
Enhanced R&D Tax Credit
IT Education Tax Credit for Employers
Educational “Info-ring” with MA educational institutions
IT “Empowerment Zones”
Downtown Boston, Seaport, Lowell, Amherst,etc
Corporate AMT moratorium on companies located in these areas
Encourage Federal enhancement of SBA/SBIC program
Fund Emerging Managers; MA as a LP
Florida “Opportunity Fund”
