The days of posting a paper notice on a bulletin board somewhere are mostly over... the days of virtual hubs as a jump-off point for in-person gatherings are here! With the rise of sites like Meetup.com, NetTuesday, WiserTuesdays and more, grassroots organizers are stepping up and the web is bringing visibility to local community meetups as never before. The masses are clearly hungry for connection!
I presented this at Highmark Blue Cross Blue Shield as part of their Every Hand Counts event in early October.
Today’s consumers (young and old) are connected through technology. It has become an integral part of day-to-day life for most and their consumer habits are shaped by their digital activity. Through technology they have the ability to research detailed information, connect with experts and other consumers and are empowered to be flexible in their product choices. This session will explore technology trends, the technologies that consumers use to stay connected, the impact other digital consumers have on product choices and how technology has impacted brand loyalty in the age of the flexible consumer. This technology overview will provide an insight into the technology that’s enabling consumers and their expectations of technology as part of the consumer experience.
When citizens get involved : the power of online communities and crowdsourcingJorieke Vyncke
Thanks to our growing connectivity, it is now easier than ever for citizens to collectively contribute to a project or cause. From microtasking, over collective intelligence, to implicit crowdsourcing; the now widely available technologies and worldwide social networks have allowed for individuals to contribute their own knowledge and skills to a larger whole. But what is crowdsourcing exactly? What drives people to do it? And how is this collaboration exactly coordinated? During this talk all these points will be addressed, a lot of examples will be given, and of course we’ll discuss possible ways that crowdsourcing can be used in development and humanitarian aid.

Our vision is build a world that empowers filmmakers, distributors and change makers to play a profound role in driving social change. We do this by passionately working with storytellers and advocates to give voice to the voiceless, expose injustice, cultivate community and drive activism through our social action campaigns.
Films can change the world. We make sure they do.
The internet, mobile, and social network revolution has ushered in a new generation of creators, shaking up the once sacrosanct boundaries that separated producers and consumers.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

2. We’re impacted by imagery For nonprofit organizations, images and multimedia devices are vital to a website. Needs to stir people to action According to Linda Jean Kenix, “the design must reflect the content provided and attract the organization's core audience.”
3. Nonprofits to Look At World Vision World Concern Habitat for Humanity “I Have A Dream” Foundation http://www.worldvision.org/ http://www.worldconcern.org/ http://www.habitat.org/ http://www.ihaveadreamfoundation.org/html/
4. Multimedia for Nonprofits Slideshows, videos, interactive elements Slideshows are good eye-catchers, but shouldn’t be too busy (set them at a slower pace so people can look at pictures/caption) Video galleries and links allow audience to view what organization is actively doing in the community and world “I Have a Dream” Foundation doesn’t have much on home page that will draw people in (videos under “media kit” not very appealing at first)
5. Media to Make Change Media can help move people to action: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Flprmt9fX60
6. What does media do for Nonprofs? “[Media] representations over time have an inevitable impact on how an organization then considers its operations and purpose. Thus, a mainstreamed image may suggest a much more mainstreamed approach in the process of social change” said Kenix. An organization’s website says a lot about its purpose. World Vision offers many donation opportunities with pictures of sponsor children as well as a video from WV President and a call to action. For a nonprofit that is focused on social change, videos and images can make a huge impact.
7. So Let there be Media! Make sure videos can be clicked on to watch Videos need to be timely, important to audience (30 hr. famine, sponsorship, Katrina, etc.)
