Finding Influence: Design Patterns for Smarter Crowds
Who’s important and how do I know? Who has the scoop and how will I find out? In any of your network of connections, some people are more interesting to you than others. Influence is about applying that understanding at large scale to the content people share and knowing who’s interesting.

How ABC's #Scandal used Social Media to Own Thursday Night TVCher Jones
ABC's #Scandal successfully used social media to dominate the airwaves every Thursday night at 10 p.m. Besides the awesome writing, acting and production value, they engaged their fans with social media. Watching Scandal became a live event on Twitter.
Scandal hashtags trended hours after the broadcast ended. Watching it for the first time on the PVR was a second rate option. The social experience of watching Scandal with a community of die hard fans (aka Gladiators) was a gratifying part of the experience. In this presentation you will see some of the strategies I noticed as social media nerd.
I shared these strategies as panelist in a session called The Wild Wild Digital World at the Innoversity Summit in Toronto.

Direct Selling Guidelines, 2016 - An AnalysisRupendra Porwal
There was long demand of Direct Selling Industry(“DSI”) for enactment of an express legislation to distinguish between the direct selling entity engaged in genuine direct selling activities and those entities involved in illegal operation of money circulation schemes in form of Ponzi and/or Pyramid Schemes.
The Government of India, pursuant to reports of Parliament Committee on growing menace of the money circulation schemes under one or more disguised structure, has been mulling to bring effective central legislation for curbing all kinds of Ponzi and/or Pyramid Schemes.
The lack of clear distinction in definitions between/among genuine direct selling entities and entities involved in illegal operation of money circulation schemes created confusion and various state governments arrested officials of direct selling entities under the provisions of Prize Chits and Money Circulation Schemes (Banning) Act, 1978, State’s Depositors Protection Act and Indian Penal Code.
Department of Consumer Affairs (Ministry of Consumer Affairs, Food and Public Distribution, GOI) issued DIRECT SELLING GUIDELINES, 2016, inter-alia, in order to curb the menace of money circulation schemes and to bring uniformity in regulations and control of the DSI in the country.
This presentation will enable the direct selling entities to structure their business in compliance of these guidelines and also enable them to understand the new business module for carrying out direct selling activities.

Event Sponsorship: 4 questions every event planner should ask themselvesJarno Stegeman
Approaching a company with a sponsorship request for your event is always difficult. A few years ago my students had to organise their very own festival. The plan was to organise a town based festival for the local community. We approached a bank that had recently opened a branch in the centre of town. After researching the bank’s mission and business approach, as well as their customers, we sent them an email and got invited for a meeting.
Sometimes you have meetings that just don’t work out. This was one of those. And after 5 minutes that became painfully clear. Long story short: we had misunderstood the bank’s mission. “We cannot provide sponsorship for your event”, the bank manager said, “but I can place some of my employees outside and hand out balloons”. Yes, that is really helpful.
Before you approach a potential sponsor you need to have a good look at your own event, the audience you are aiming for, your own data, and what you actually want from a potential sponsor.
This slideshow will help you identify some of the questions you need to find the answers to with regards to event sponsorship.
Here you can find 21 ways to boost your event or conference. Cyriel has a lot of experience as Master of Interaction and loves to share his knowledge and experience in some very practical ways to inspire, engage and wake up your audience. Enjoy!

This is the presentation that I delivered at the Colombia 3.0 conference in Bogota, Colombia. It is aimed at entrepreneurs and digital content producers who want to jump-start their social media presence -- or at established businesses who need to systematize the way they work with social media.

Discovery Is The New Cocaine - Going Beyond EngagementMing
[Questions? mingyeow@gmail.com]
Web2 is about participation, but what comes after that? We think it is all about Discovery, the art of helping users serendipitously discover content and people that they did not know they wanted to know. Discovery is what makes people come back again and again, interact, and explore.
This deck explains what Discovery is, the psychological reasons behind it, and presents a set of very very practical examples and guidelines on how it can be implemented.
The inspiration for this deck was simple- We ourselves were frustrated by apparent random-ness at which we were implementing discovery for our own startup (discoverio), and were not able to find any resources that presented discovery in a holistic manner.
So just like anyone of you would have done, we decided to come out with process, and share it around with the rest of the world! :)
The most powerful piece is probably the very last slide, but we had not had time to expand on it yet.
Here it is, and we will love feedback! Contact details at the end. ;)

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.

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!

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.
