This document outlines a model for measuring social media return on investment (ROI) for nonprofits. It recommends starting simply by measuring awareness, attitudes, and actions/behaviors (crawling) and increasing sophistication over time by integrating metrics into strategic objectives and departments (walking, running, flying). Early focus areas include communications strategy, objectives, audience data collection, and experiments. The model provides examples of basic to advanced metrics and challenges, and emphasizes starting measurement from the beginning and improving practice through reflection.

Measurement is Not Counting: Social Media & Return on Investment, presented b...craigslist_fndn
You are actively using Facebook or Twitter or LinkedIn or a blog as part of your organization’s marketing or fundraising strategy. But do you know what your audience wants from you? Are you measuring how effective you are with these tools? Can you answer your boss’s or board’s questions about the value of spending time on social media? How do you know social media is a good investment and that you are getting strong results? Beth’s session addresses how to measure social media return on investment, including a strong framework and practical tips to measure and refine your social media tactics.
Most everyone has dipped their toe into the social media waters over the past few years, taking a peek at Facebook and Twitter to see what the buzz is all about. But we have learned that using social media tools isn't very difficult, however using them effectively,
particularly for social change, is challenging. Beth Kanter will lead
an interactive keynote the key principles for effective social media use that turns traditional organizations into cost-effective,far-reaching and effective Networked Nonprofits.
In his public lecture, Christian Timmerer provides insights into the fascinating history of video streaming, starting from its humble beginnings before YouTube to the groundbreaking technologies that now dominate platforms like Netflix and ORF ON.

Why You Should Replace Windows 11 with Nitrux Linux 3.5.0 for enhanced perfor...SOFTTECHHUB
The choice of an operating system plays a pivotal role in shaping our computing experience. For decades, Microsoft's Windows has dominated the market, offering a familiar and widely adopted platform for personal and professional use. However, as technological advancements continue to push the boundaries of innovation, alternative operating systems have emerged, challenging the status quo and offering users a fresh perspective on computing.
One such alternative that has garnered significant attention and acclaim is Nitrux Linux 3.5.0, a sleek, powerful, and user-friendly Linux distribution that promises to redefine the way we interact with our devices. With its focus on performance, security, and customization, Nitrux Linux presents a compelling case for those seeking to break free from the constraints of proprietary software and embrace the freedom and flexibility of open-source computing.
Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.

Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software FuzzingAftab Hussain
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.

Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing DaysKari Kakkonen
My slides at Nordic Testing Days 6.6.2024
Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.

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.

37. Results
More timely and accurate public health messaging communities. and more efficient use
of staff time
Booking appointments
Answering public health questions
Less time on phone or other channels
Ease of communication with journalists
More press coverage, less staff time
38. “People regard our program as honest and informative. After almost two years on the
social media front, we’ve developed a good system to get timely and accurate public
health messaging to our communities. We firmly believe that our presence on social media
sites has really enhanced our communication with the media and public.
Executive Director, Gary Edwards said it best in our 2010 Annual Report; that during tough
economic times, SLVHD rose to the occasion and found innovative, cost effective ways to
communicate with our community. “ - Vanna Livaditis, New Media Coordinator

42. Conclusion
Social media measurement goes hand in hand with
good practice
Slightly more mature practice for measuring
business results vs social impact
Social media measurement is a discipline, not a task,
and it needs to be part of the organization’s culture
There’s a big need for more training/capacity for
measurement discipline and improvement of
practice and sharing the stories
