Introduction of networks delivered to Unilever in July, 2013 and then updated for post-graduate students in 2014. Talk includes recent data on e-Commerce and mobility in Asia.
Slightly updated for the end of 2015, these slides describe the How and Why of networks in the digital age. As I like to say, it is not about the shiny objects (e.g., Facebook, Instagram, or any other app). Thriving in a digital age means we need to understand how networks functions. Doing so allows us to plan our actions and communications more wisely.
This document discusses Gen, a 28-year-old Singaporean woman who is highly engaged with social media and digital technologies. It summarizes how Gen lives her life primarily through social networking apps and does not engage with traditional media like newspapers or radio. The document then discusses some of the key trends and concepts related to digital media, social networks, and their influence on society, including how information and behaviors spread through social networks, the benefits and risks of social media, and emerging trends like mobility and big data.
Social media has changed how people consume and share information. It allows billions of users worldwide to communicate and connect through platforms like Facebook, Instagram, YouTube and Twitter. Research identifies ten common reasons for using social media, including social interaction, information seeking, entertainment and expressing opinions. However, excessive social media use of over two hours per day has been linked to poor mental health in teens. While social media provides benefits, it can also negatively impact people's well-being if not used in moderation.
The document discusses how social media can benefit government organizations and the military. It notes that social media allows for improved collaboration across boundaries, more efficient communication, knowledge sharing, and community building. It provides examples of how government agencies like FEMA and DHS are using social media successfully for information sharing, crowdsourcing ideas, and emergency response. The military could use social media for threat surveillance, training, communication, recruiting, and knowledge management.
Modern Technology for Familial CommunicationJamie Hong
The document discusses how modern technology can both strengthen and weaken familial connections. It argues that while technologies like social media, texting, and video calls allow family members to stay in touch across distances, they can also reduce meaningful interaction and increase isolation among older and poorer family members who lack access. Both parents and children are spending too much time on devices, and families often communicate more through technology than in person. Ultimately, technology is best able to strengthen families when used in moderation and combined with real face-to-face interaction.
The document discusses the relationship between media and society as toxic. It notes our increasing dependence on media in daily life. While media initially provided benefits like expanded reach and empowerment, prolonged exposure has resulted in negative implications like isolation, depression, and restricted social interaction. The time spent online has doubled in the past decade and risks turning the benefits of online communication into an emotionally abusive relationship. The document argues we should moderate media usage to ensure it creates solutions rather than issues.

Is the Internet Isolating or Connecting us?Matthew Kehoe
The document discusses how the internet and social media may be both connecting people and isolating them. It provides a brief history of the internet and its growth. While younger generations have integrated new technologies, older generations tend to be less connected. Social media has become an important part of identity for teens and is available through mobile devices. However, constant connectivity through technology can also lead to isolation and reduced attention spans. The effects of internet and social media use are complex with arguments on both sides.
Alilea Fitzgerald is a junior at Columbus South High School in Columbus, OH. After graduation she wants to pursue a career in forensic science. This is her first year competing in the BDPA IT Showcase. Her research was entitled, ‘Social Media: Let’s Get Conn_Ected’.
Communication right now is the best way to get into people’s heads. Communication has been used by rulers to gain control and power and attention of the readers or listeners. Today we use social media to communicate, control, gossip and grab people’s attention with marketing. People can be anywhere in the world and look at Facebook, Twitter, Yahoo and so forth.
Ms. Fitzgerald’s research gave information on how social media works, how it is used in society, its impact and the barriers that confront it in the future. Ms. Fitzgerald is another ‘future face of technology’ brought out into the world by the works of BDPA.
The effects of Social Networking upon societyBishrul Haq
This document discusses the effects of social networking on society. It outlines some of the main positive effects, including the ability to communicate instantly with people, share photos and videos, share opinions and emotions, promote advertisements, and increase reputation. Some negative effects mentioned are political and religious corruption enabled by social media, the threat of unauthorized information tapping by hackers, addiction to social media, underage access without parental guidance, and emotional and heartbreaking situations caused by social media interactions. The document provides examples of popular social media platforms and how they contribute to these effects on individuals and society.
Social media has become an integral part of modern media and communication. A study identified the top 10 uses of social media as social interaction, information seeking, passing time, entertainment, relaxation, communicatory utility, convenience, expressing opinions, and information sharing. However, excessive social media use can negatively impact students' academic performance and mental health. Teenagers who use social media for more than two hours a day are more likely to experience poor mental health and psychological issues.
Tunheim Partners' David Erickson's and Eliza Appert's presentation at the 2008 Minnesota Council on Nonprofits conference, Nonprofits & Government: Partnerships & Policies in a Time of Retrenchment on Millennials & Micropayments: Social Giving & ePhilanthropy.
The document discusses some of the negative impacts of social media, including cyberbullying and catfishing. It provides statistics showing that cyberbullying is common, with 43% of children reporting being bullied online and 1 in 4 saying it happened more than once. Catfishing, where people pretend to be someone else online, is also discussed. The document suggests that both cyberbullying and catfishing stem from issues like loneliness, low self-esteem, and a desire to harm others. While social media allows people to connect, it can also encourage people to create fake personas and identities online.
Lee Rainie, director of Internet, Science and Technology research at the Pew Research Center, described the Center’s research about public views related to facts and trust after the 2016 election at UPCEA's “Summit on Online Leadership.” He explored how education is affected as students face challenges finding and using knowledge. In addition, he covered the Center’s latest research about how ubiquitous technology shapes the new information landscape for students.
This document discusses social media use in the workplace. It provides an overview of how social media has grown rapidly in recent years and become an extension of many people's personal and professional lives, including the modern workforce. Both benefits and concerns of social media use in the workplace are examined based on various studies. While social media can enhance learning, recruitment, communication and more, CEOs remain skeptical due to risks of confidential information leaks, unprofessional conduct, and blurred lines between personal and work time.
The internet has significantly influenced public opinion formation. It allows for a more open exchange of views but agenda setting by media still impacts what issues receive attention. While the internet gives individuals a platform to share views, those with more online presence or who are in dominant positions tend to influence public opinion disproportionately. People also tend to seek out views they already agree with, potentially limiting exposure to different perspectives. Overall the internet both positively promotes transparency but also poses challenges in ensuring public opinion remains representative.

New Voices: The Civic Technology and Open Government Opportunity
Join civic technology leader Steven Clift and White House Champion of Change for Open Government, for a presentation and dialogue on reaching new and more representative voices through open government and civic technology.
The stakes are high - will open government and civic technology ironically lead to greater concentration of power among fewer, often similar voices or will more open government and community engagement online lead to better government decisions, stronger communities and more problem-solving?
Find out what the numbers say.
Learn from on the ground local examples with global implications.
Online Civic Communicators
Clift will highlight myth-busting research from the Pew Internet and American Life project and share unique highlights from E-Democracy's Knight Foundation-funded BeNeighbors.org initiative that is designed to foster local neighbourhood engagement online that builds bridges across income, race, and native-born and immigrant communities.
E-Democracy's 2013 Team
Connecting neighbors online, from using Facebook Groups to respond to Hurricane Sandy to parents in Park Slope to over 1000 households in just one Minneapolis neighborhood connecting in community life offers hope in an era of growing public mistrust.
Clift will also offer some global highlights about interesting open source "e-participation" trends he discovered in his recent European speaking trip. If you cannot attend, this video of a recent presentation hosted by the Finnish Ministy of Justice and these slides.
Hosted by E-Democracy.org. Special thanks to the UNDP for hosting this event and betaNYC for promotion.
The gathering will leverage content from roundtable discussions hosted in Washington DC at the Sunlight Foundation, San Francisco at Code for America, and in London with Lobbi, on the Pew Internet and American Life Project’s report on Civic Engagement in the Digital Age and Clift’s inclusion analysis.

The New Era of News: How Social Media is Impacting The U.S Presidential ElectionMadison Marcello
Social media has become a primary source of news for many Americans, especially millennials. It has changed how political campaigns operate and how voters receive information about candidates. Millennials now make up a significant portion of eligible voters, and their views are influenced by political discussions on social media. However, there is a lack of certainty about the factual accuracy of news shared on social media platforms. The 2016 presidential election has highlighted the large role social media now plays in how voters learn about candidates and political issues.
The document discusses ways to improve communication within a religious organization to be more effective and inclusive of different generations. It suggests leveraging various communication vehicles like paper, email, websites and social media to engage members and the community. Bridges need to be built between insiders and outsiders through easy ways for newcomers to get involved. The organization should understand members' technology preferences and provide feedback opportunities to better communicate its message and support for all people.
This document summarizes research on digital multitasking and its effects. It defines multitasking and digital natives, and explores both the positive and negative effects of digital multitasking. While some "high media multitaskers" showed increased productivity with distractions, research also linked heavy multitasking to decreased academic performance, increased stress, and lower productivity overall. The verdict is that digital natives should limit multitasking on devices to be happier, healthier and more productive, unless they are among the small percentage that multitask effectively.
The document discusses some of the negative effects that increased use of digital media and social media can have on mental health. It notes that while research is still ongoing, studies have found correlations between excessive social media use, especially among teens, and increased rates of mental health issues like depression and anxiety. The constant connectivity enabled by digital devices can also disrupt sleep patterns and promote constant stress responses due to things like social comparison and pressure to curate an ideal online image. However, the document suggests some strategies like limiting notifications and focusing on one task at a time to help mitigate these mental health impacts.
This document discusses the benefits of reading print books compared to digital formats. It notes that while technology usage is increasing, many people still prefer print books. There are several reasons for this, including the tactile experience of holding a physical book, the ease of remembering information from print versus scrolling on a screen, and the sense of accomplishment readers feel from seeing their progress in a print book. Overall, the document argues that the pleasure of reading a print book cannot be replaced by digital formats.
Social networking has become a major trend on the web, with hundreds of millions of people participating. While connecting socially online is not new, the scale at which people are forming public social connections on sites like Facebook is unprecedented. Social networking sites allow users to create profiles, connect with friends, share photos and videos, join groups, and interact in various ways. These sites have also expanded to mobile platforms, allowing social networking to extend into the real world through people's phones. Social networking is no longer just for youth, as the median age of users on sites like Facebook has risen to over 25 years old.
The document discusses how increased use of media and technology is negatively impacting people's attention spans. It notes that the average attention span has declined from 12 seconds in 2000 to 8 seconds now. Heavy social media use makes it difficult for people to focus on tasks. Multitasking across devices reduces effectiveness and causes more mistakes. Frequent technology use can lead to cognitive failures and difficulty filtering important information. These issues are also impacting children at younger ages.
Updated Talk delivered to AmCham and MICA in Singapore, Nov 09. New examples include Queenstown, New Zealand and Obolo's blogger relations fiasco. Also, you find new data on ICT ranking in Asia. Enjoy!
The document discusses the plagiarism scandal at Newcastle University and its impact on various constituencies. It outlines the main issues as the university covering up whistleblowing and violating discipline policies. This compromised Newcastle's credibility. The document then analyzes the attitudes and expectations of various constituencies, including staff, students, other universities, and the Ministry of Education. It proposes messages and communications strategies for Newcastle University to address the scandal, including mortification of the issues and commitment to reform policies. The university aims to reassure stakeholders while cooperating with investigations.

ASEAN Leadership Model (research funded by SMU Executive Development)Michael Netzley, Ph.D.
With the creation of the AEC in 2015, companies have increased incentive to look at ASEAN for growth. But what leadership model should companies invest in? Given the context of ASEAN, we cannot simply import a model from Europe or USA. This presentation shares a first look at SMU's ASEAN leadership model and presents the initial findings of our CEO interviews. Research was funded by SMU's Executive Development Office.

This document discusses employee engagement and provides recommendations for improving it. It finds that only 1 in 10 employees are actively engaged, leading to lower productivity. Highly engaged organizations see double the success and lower absenteeism. The top drivers of engagement are recognition, support, future vision, trust, communication, and growth opportunities. To improve engagement, organizations should measure the right engagement metrics, ensure good communication from leadership to embed purpose, and focus on building an irresistible culture with strategic talent practices.
Cities are leveraging technology to better connect with its constituents. However, cities are at risk of isolating key segments of its populations without closing the digital divide. We will explore the digital divide’s impact on civic technology and the role of cities in increasing access to high-speed Internet.

Social Networking Presentation for CEEDguestce9f9c
As a halifax based marketing and communications consultant, I spoke to a group of SMBs on October 14 about Social Networking and broader based Marketing.
The document discusses social networking and strategies for using social media. It begins with an introduction to social networking, defining it as online communities that allow people to share interests and interact. It then provides statistics on social media usage in Canada. The presentation emphasizes understanding your audience, engaging them authentically, and having clear objectives for a social media strategy focused on dialogue and engagement. It concludes with a question and answer section.
Jesse Stremcha discusses the growing relevance of social media for planned giving and fundraising. He provides an overview of major social media platforms like Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, and their applications for nonprofit organizations.

Big Data, Big Opportunity: Making Sense of Big Data for PRCision
Big Data creates big brand-building opportunities. Do you know how to use it effectively? It’s as easy as tapping into social media intelligence and doesn’t require an additional investment in IT resources.
Heidi Sullivan of Cision and Mike Maziarka of Visible Technologies explore the basics of Big Data and how to leverage it to positively impact your brand.
Many experts say the rise of embedded and wearable computing will bring the next revolution in digital technology. They say the upsides are enhanced health, convenience, productivity, safety, and more useful information for people/organizations. At KMWorld Confererence, Lee Rainie shares the latest findings from Pew Research about the internet and puts it into organizational context with the expanding Internet of Things.
This document summarizes a presentation on big data and development. It begins by exploring definitions of big data, as there is no single agreed upon definition. It then discusses how big data is different for development contexts due to new sources of machine-readable data from social media and mobile phones in developing regions. Several examples are provided of organizations applying big data techniques for development purposes, including the United Nations' Global Pulse initiative and work in countries like Kenya, the Philippines, and Mexico.
INFORMATION WANTS SOMEONE ELSE TO PAY FOR IT : AS SCIENCE AND SCHOLARSHIP EVO...Micah Altman
Dr Altman provided this keynote plenary for the annual meeting of the 57th Annual Meeting of National Federation of Advanced Information Services (NFAIS)
More content is being created by scientists and scholars than ever -- and vastly greater collections of information are the subject of science as scholarship. Simultaneously, the community of users for and uses of this information are changing. This talk reflects on trends in the generation and use of durable information assets in scholarship and science, and on the changing relationship between consumers, purchasers and funders.
Some of my favorite takeaways from 2013 South by Southwest's Health track on innovation, digital health, technology, social media, patient advocacy, and more.
Social Media is no longer optional. CPAs are using social media to stay on top of major trends, increase their recognition in markets, and being recognized as thought leaders. This preso is from a special 4 hour session at MACPA's Beach Retreat on July 3rd, 2010 in Ocean City, MD
The document discusses strategies for non-profits to build success through online fundraising and engagement.

The document discusses 5 major trends that are disrupting the travel industry: 1) the experience economy, 2) automation, 3) collaborative intelligence, 4) digital marketing and the power of crowds, and 5) the need for reskilling workers. It explains how these trends are changing how travelers book trips and the skills needed for travel agents. The document advises travel agents to measure their digital readiness, invest in developing digital skills, and read about digital transformation to adapt to the changing industry.
The document discusses how digital networks and social media impact individuals and society. It notes that social networks allow information like emotions, behaviors, and political views to spread from person to person through connections. However, constant connectivity through devices can reduce cognitive ability and increase social isolation as networks become more homogeneous. While networks provide benefits like sharing information, they also compete for limited attention and can expose users to manipulation if prominent voices are not diverse. Overall, the document examines both upsides and downsides of living in a highly networked digital world.
This document summarizes Michael Netzley's presentation on Napoleon's 1812 invasion of Russia. Some key points:
- In 1812, Napoleon led the Grande Armee of 680,000 French soldiers into Russia to defeat the Russian army of 200,000 men.
- After reaching Moscow in September, the Russians had abandoned the city and set it ablaze. Napoleon was forced to retreat in October with only 100,000 surviving soldiers.
- On the march back to France, the French army suffered tremendously from exposure to the early winter as well as starvation. This disastrous campaign marked the beginning of Napoleon's decline in power.
The document discusses how cloud computing and digital networks can drive business model innovation. It introduces a cloud enablement framework that categorizes companies based on how their use of cloud impacts value propositions and value chains. Companies are classified as optimizers, innovators, or disruptors. Optimizers use cloud to incrementally enhance customer value, innovators significantly increase customer value through new revenue streams, and disruptors invent new value propositions by creating customer needs they were unaware of. Examples of each category are provided.
A talk provoking forward thinking with regards to social media, mobile, and mobile payments. What are the opportunities for tapping into networks and advancing marketing & PR alongside the rise of mobile payments?
The document discusses how social media usage trends in Singapore show that charities need to adapt their social media strategies to be where their stakeholders are and engage in more passive content consumption behaviors. It recommends that charities begin with developing a wise content strategy and explore new behaviors on social media platforms to help solve problems, lower costs, expand resources, and leverage the influence of peer messages.
Delivered to Singapore's Ministry of Education on April 13, 2011. Focus is on social media: Singapore's media landscape, real-time communication and expectations, and cloud computing. Student examples at end.
This document summarizes digital media usage across Asia based on research conducted by Michael Netzley. It begins by noting the diversity within Asia and issues with viewing it through a Western lens. It then provides statistics on internet penetration rates in various Asian countries, showing China and South Korea as leaders. National social networks, search engines, and communication tools are also described as varying by country. Survey results from Singapore are presented showing differences in online behaviors by age. Reasons for going online and issues like internet blocking are also briefly discussed.
Dr. Michael Netzley presented on digital media across Asia. He discussed how social media has democratized media by putting content creation and distribution in the hands of many. Rapid communication allows messages to spread widely through social networks. Social media also provides better and faster access to information. However, effective strategies require balanced risk assessment, being data-driven, measuring objectives, and connecting with people rather than just broadcasting messages. Examples from South Korea on US beef imports and social media use by Singaporeans were provided to illustrate these points.
This document discusses 5 case studies of how social media was used in Asia:
1) Filmmaker Tan Siok Siok used Twitter to crowdsource a documentary.
2) KFC launched a successful Facebook campaign in the Philippines.
3) Lenovo engaged fans through athlete blogging for the Olympics across 25 countries.
4) South Korean blogs and media spread rumors during a debate over US beef imports.
5) Singapore authorities and hospitals used Twitter and SMS to provide updates on an H1N1 outbreak.
The case studies show how communication has become "trans-media" and the importance of search and adapting to local ecosystems in Asia's information societies.
This document discusses how Generation Y is ushering in an age of digital learning. It notes that Gen Y grew up with new technologies like video games, email, texting, and the internet. They have different learning preferences than older generations, preferring constant stimulation and control. The document also summarizes research showing Gen Y prefers online social networks and expressing themselves online, while older generations are less active digitally. It suggests educators may need to adopt new Web 2.0 technologies to effectively teach Gen Y, but that faculty currently have low rates of adoption due to perceived lack of usefulness or confidence with the technologies.

3. DARPA Red Balloon Challenge
• 2009 challenge on wide
area collaboration
• Defense Advance
Research Project Agency
• $40,000 prize to be first at
finding 10 balloons around
the United States
• How long did the winning
team need to find them?
5. How Did the MIT Team Win?
• Shared the reward
– $2000 correct
coordinates
– $1000 for whomever
invited them
– $500 for inviting the
inviter
– $250 for inviting them
– And so on…
• Mass & social media were
complementary
• Data mining via social
media
6. What Was The Challenge?
• Competition to succeed to locating
• Geographically dispersed information
• Nontraditional problem required a nontraditional
solution
Crowdsourcing
8. Today’s Objectives
• Understand it is all about networks
• Introduce Castell’s networked societies
• Learn the mechanics of networks (intro to network theory)
• Highlight weak & strong ties
• Feature three trends you need to watch: big data, e-Commerce &
mobility
16. Misdirect: Networks, not Information
• The defining characteristic of the modern age
is networks
– All societies have had information (e.g., Ancient
Athens and Rome)
– Digital networks are unique to the current age
– Networks, for the first time, can be a sustained
structure for organizing people and work
19. How We Now Organize
Societal elites are now much less
connected to cities [places], and are
instead connected to information
flows. Thus, the network serves as
our organizing principle.
Previously, networks were just an ad
hoc organizational structure until the
rise of digital technologies.
22. Harvard Med School: Emotions Spread
Through Large Social Networks
Conclusion: People’s happiness
depends on the happiness of others
with whom they are connected. This
provides further justification for seeing
happiness, like health, as a collective
phenomenon.
- British Medical Journal 337 (2008)
Fowler and Christakis
23. Harvard Med School: Obesity Spreads
Through Large Social Networks
“You may not know him personally,
but your friend’s husband’s coworker
can make you fat. And your sister’s
friend’s boyfriend can make you thin.”
- Fowler and Christakis (2009)
Connected
24. Harvard Political Scientist:
Why Americans Vote
If you vote, then it increases the
likelihood that your friend’s friend will
also vote….Instead of each of us
having only one vote, we effectively
have several and therefore much
more likely to influence the
outcome.
- Fowler and Christakis (2009)
Connected
31. When to Use Weak Ties
• Speed of Distribution
• Less Dependent on Others
• Reach Distant Targets with Whom We are not
Connected
• Innovative Ideas or Models
• Episodic Information Flows
• Bridge Diverse Groups
32. When to Use Strong Ties
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Urgent Situation
Dependency for Well Being
Decision Making
Ethos-Based Infuence
Access: Doors Opened
Regular Information Flows
Change Target’s Values
33.
34. Tipping Point for Ideas: Just 10%?
Scientists at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute
have found that when just 10 percent of the
population holds an unshakable belief, their
belief will always be adopted by the majority of
the society.

consensus through the influence of committed
minorities.”

54. So What Changes?
• Increase in geography-based search terms as people
move about and conduct searches (state source?)
• Most SEO today does not factor in geographic terms, so
SEO must be updates
• People rapidly enter search terms by small screen while
moving, so mistakes increase, and the search engine
must still recognize and find the relevant results (and
quickly)
• Many search engines driven by ad revenues, so how do
you display ads successfully on such a small screen?
