Google Wave was an ambitious collaboration platform launched in 2009 but shut down just over a year later in August 2010. Some of the key reasons for its failure included:
1) Its complex user interface and real-time features made it difficult for most users to understand and adopt.
2) It struggled to gain critical mass with only around 1 million users after over a year, far less than simpler services like Google Buzz.
3) The timing was not right as consumers were not ready for such an integrated email, messaging, and collaboration platform in real-time.
4) Competition from existing collaboration software and better options for one-to-one communication like Facebook made it challenging for Wave to gain widespread
Startup Everpix investor and pitch deck to VC & investorsGaëtan Deremince
After failing to raise a Series A funding, the 2-year-old photo service shut down in November 2013. The founders decided to release on Github (https://github.com/everpix) all the uncensored Everpix metrics, financials and business data about their users, photos, sales, costs and more, so similar businesses don’t suffer the same fate.
Here is their last investor pitch deck (more easy to read here than on Github).

This document provides an overview of Google Wave including:
- Wave allows for real-time collaboration by combining elements of email, chat and documents.
- Developers can build extensions like robots and gadgets that interact with waves using APIs.
- The Wave Embed API allows waves to be embedded in other web applications.
Nokia began in the late 19th century making paper and rubber products, eventually expanding into cable, electronics, and telecommunications. It launched the first international cellular network in 1981 and helped establish the GSM standard in 1987. Nokia dominated the mobile phone market in the late 1990s and early 2000s. However, it failed to keep up with smartphone innovation from Apple and Google. After several leadership and strategy changes, Nokia's market share declined dramatically and it sold its mobile phone business to Microsoft in 2013.
Nokia failed due to being slow to respond to trends in the smartphone market set by Apple and Android-powered phones. Nokia's Symbian OS struggled to keep up and they partnered with Microsoft too late. They also lost market share on low-end phones to local Indian brands. By 2012, Nokia's market share had dropped to only 7-9% in India, down from 60% in 2006, as competitors like Samsung and Micromax overtook them with more innovative products.
The document discusses the benefits of exercise for mental health. Regular physical activity can help reduce anxiety and depression and improve mood and cognitive functioning. Exercise boosts blood flow and levels of neurotransmitters and endorphins which elevate and stabilize mood.
The passage discusses the history and current state of bridges in the city of Königsberg (now Kaliningrad, Russia). It notes that Leonhard Euler proved the original 7-bridge configuration did not allow for an Eulerian path. After World War II bombing destroyed some bridges, the network was altered so an Eulerian path is now theoretically possible but impractical. A model of the original bridges exists at a New Zealand university.
This document provides an overview of the construction of the Diavik Diamond Mine in the Northwest Territories of Canada. It describes some of the unique challenges of building a mine in such a remote arctic location, situated above Canada's treeline and 220 km below the Arctic Circle. It discusses how engineers conceived of and built dikes and on-land dams to access the lakebed and keep the water at bay in order to mine the kimberlite pipes below the bed of Lac de Gras for their diamond contents. The document outlines the construction of various facilities at the mine site including the process plant, ancillary facilities, accommodation complex, and measures taken for safety and sustainability.

The document summarizes the key challenges facing naval mine countermeasures (NCM) and proposes elements for developing a future NCM capability. It notes that sea mines remain a threat despite lack of recent use, and emerging technologies could modernize mines. Current NCM methods still rely on divers and outdated equipment. The future NCM capability requires cooperation between nations, flexibility to operate in different environments, innovation to develop new technologies and concepts, and investment in human capital through education and training. It proposes achieving flexibility through cheaper platforms that can rapidly adapt systems, and closer cooperation between militaries, industry and research to develop robust equipment.
The document discusses probabilistic geological modeling and understanding uncertainty in reservoir models. It argues that current modeling tools only sample uncertainties within a given conceptual model, rather than exploring different conceptual models. Considering multiple conceptual models that fit the data is important for understanding high-impact uncertainties. Money and effort may be better spent exploring a wide range of conceptual models rather than exhaustively quantifying uncertainties within a single model. Understanding uncertainties requires interdisciplinary teams that generate different conceptual scenarios spanning realistic possibilities, rather than just investigating multiple equally probable realizations of a single concept.
This document discusses the process of designing and building indoor water parks. It covers the history of indoor water parks beginning in 1985 in Canada. When designing a water park, project managers work with clients to understand their needs and create detailed proposals including schematics, drawings and cost estimates. They also consider cultural and regional factors in the design. Once approved, construction begins with installing filtration, heating and cooling systems before water features can be added. The future of indoor water parks looks promising as innovations continue to be made.

Kodak was a pioneer in photography technology from the late 19th century until the early 2000s. It introduced roll film and mass-market cameras like the Brownie, dominating the photographic industry. However, Kodak was slow to transition to digital photography despite inventing the first digital camera in 1975. When digital cameras replaced film in the early 2000s, Kodak's business model collapsed as film sales plummeted. Kodak filed for bankruptcy in 2012, unable to complete the transition from film to digital that disrupted its entire industry.
The floppy disk was invented in 1967 by IBM engineers to provide a reliable and inexpensive way to load software and updates onto mainframe computers. Floppy disks stored data on flexible magnetic disks and helped enable the personal computer revolution by allowing for easy transfer of data and programs between computers. At its peak in the mid-1990s, over 5 billion floppy disks were sold worldwide per year. While floppy disks are rarely used today due to larger storage options, they had a huge impact by making data transfer portable and easy, fueling the growth of the software industry and changing how people worked.

This document provides an overview of the external environment of organizations and the history of Eastman Kodak's decline. It discusses the macro environment including political, economic, sociocultural, technological, environmental and legal factors. It then discusses Kodak's timeline from 1884 when it patented roll film to 2012 when it filed for bankruptcy. While Kodak invented the first digital camera in 1975, it struggled to adapt to digital photography and saw its market share eroded by competitors as digital cameras grew in popularity through the 2000s.
Indoor water parks require extensive planning, design, construction, and maintenance. They involve complex systems like filtration, chlorination, and HVAC to keep the water and environment clean and healthy. Design firms work closely with clients to understand their needs and design efficient and safe water parks. Construction requires precise planning and execution. Ongoing maintenance like water treatment and safety procedures are essential to park operations. New innovations in rides aim to enhance the visitor experience over time.
The document discusses the history and process of building indoor water parks. It covers how the first indoor water park was built in 1985 in Edmonton, Canada and prompted the first American indoor park in 1989. Creating a water park involves creating detailed proposals, understanding client needs, and planning with project managers. Parks require complex filtration systems and are carefully designed, planned, and constructed before opening. Interviews with staff revealed changes over time including new ride types like water coasters while filtration and rivers have remained consistent.
USS Nimitz employed seven new media channels in 2011 including Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Flickr, Issuu, Old Salt Blog and an iTunes podcast. The ship faced challenges communicating with a dispersed crew and families during its year-long dry dock period. Nimitz established goals to increase engagement on new media platforms and build relations in its new homeport area. Through consistent posting, the ship gained nearly 3 million views across all channels in 2011, most through Facebook, and increased its Facebook following by 47%.
inQuba Webinar Mastering Customer Journey Management with Dr Graham HillLizaNolte

Northern Engraving | Modern Metal Trim, Nameplates and Appliance PanelsNorthern Engraving
What began over 115 years ago as a supplier of precision gauges to the automotive industry has evolved into being an industry leader in the manufacture of product branding, automotive cockpit trim and decorative appliance trim. Value-added services include in-house Design, Engineering, Program Management, Test Lab and Tool Shops.
Conversational agents, or chatbots, are increasingly used to access all sorts of services using natural language. While open-domain chatbots - like ChatGPT - can converse on any topic, task-oriented chatbots - the focus of this paper - are designed for specific tasks, like booking a flight, obtaining customer support, or setting an appointment. Like any other software, task-oriented chatbots need to be properly tested, usually by defining and executing test scenarios (i.e., sequences of user-chatbot interactions). However, there is currently a lack of methods to quantify the completeness and strength of such test scenarios, which can lead to low-quality tests, and hence to buggy chatbots.
To fill this gap, we propose adapting mutation testing (MuT) for task-oriented chatbots. To this end, we introduce a set of mutation operators that emulate faults in chatbot designs, an architecture that enables MuT on chatbots built using heterogeneous technologies, and a practical realisation as an Eclipse plugin. Moreover, we evaluate the applicability, effectiveness and efficiency of our approach on open-source chatbots, with promising results.

Lee Barnes - Path to Becoming an Effective Test Automation Engineer.pdfleebarnesutopia
So… you want to become a Test Automation Engineer (or hire and develop one)? While there’s quite a bit of information available about important technical and tool skills to master, there’s not enough discussion around the path to becoming an effective Test Automation Engineer that knows how to add VALUE. In my experience this had led to a proliferation of engineers who are proficient with tools and building frameworks but have skill and knowledge gaps, especially in software testing, that reduce the value they deliver with test automation.
In this talk, Lee will share his lessons learned from over 30 years of working with, and mentoring, hundreds of Test Automation Engineers. Whether you’re looking to get started in test automation or just want to improve your trade, this talk will give you a solid foundation and roadmap for ensuring your test automation efforts continuously add value. This talk is equally valuable for both aspiring Test Automation Engineers and those managing them! All attendees will take away a set of key foundational knowledge and a high-level learning path for leveling up test automation skills and ensuring they add value to their organizations.

- The company faced constant skills shortage.

Safety & Regulation
- Inadequate number of lifeboats on board (only 16).
- At the time, lifeboat regulation based on the tonnage of
the ship.
- Changes imminent to a passenger-based system. The ship
owners opposed the change.

The Client
- The Titanic's designers planned double davits to
accommodate the extra lifeboats. Sketches for these were
found after the ship sank.
- However, owner Bruce Ismay decided not to add the extra
lifeboats since they would have cut down on the space on
the first class promenade deck, rather than prepare for a
disaster that would “never happen” on a ship with the
Titanic's technology.

The Lookout
- Fred Fleet, experienced seaman
- First to spot the iceberg ahead at 500 yards.
- Visibility should have allowed him to spot the iceberg at
1000 yards or greater, but Fred Fleet couldn’t find the
binoculars.

The Designer
- Thomas Andrews was the Titanic’s marine architect.
- Viewing the damage, he famously predicted that the ship
would sink in two and a half hours, and he was correct to
the minute.
- Andrews also went down with the ship.

16. Andrews also designed the Titanic's sister ship,
the Brittanic, which also sank in 1916 after
hitting a mine…

Wave
The Hype.
Google launched its Google Wave real-time collaboration
platform at the Google I/O conference in May 2009.
The presentation blew some peoples' minds, prompting
effusive applause. People saw something they've never seen
before: a mash-up of e-mail, instant messaging, live editing,
photo and video sharing.
On August 4, 2010 Google said it was shutting Wave.

Critical Mass
- Wave’s iceberg.
- 100,000 invites, but not enough “power users”.
- Wave, which launched to the general public in May 2010,
only gained 1 million users in more than a year.
- By contrast, Google Buzz (a much simpler service) launched
in February 2010 and has tens of millions of users.

Extendability
- Not extendable.
- eg Google chrome has 1,000+ plug-ins and extensions.
- Poor integration with other Google aps (eg Google docs).

- Good for mass collaboration and workgroups
- Bad for 1:1 communication with family and friends

The Captain
- “Live typing” was a core part of the Wave protocol, and
Lars Rasmussen considered it a critical Wave “killer
feature”!
- This was a major buzzkill; few people are comfortable in an
informal chat where others can watch them type.

In 1912, the Titanic was the newest, largest, and most technologically advanced liner in the world. Despite all of its innovative technology, the ship sank on a clear night on its maiden voyage with the loss of 1522 lives. The unsinkable Titanic sank.
This iceberg was photographed by the chief steward of the liner Prinze Adelbert on the morning of April 15, 1912, just a few miles south of where the Titanic went down. The steward hadn't yet heard about the Titanic. What caught his attention was the smear of red paint along the base of the berg, indication that it had collided with a ship sometime in the previous twelve hours. This photo and information was taken from "UNSINKABLE" The Full Story of RMS Titanic Written by Daniel Allen Butler, Stackpole Books 1998.
Pyjamas … The Titanic would be much more marketable if it could cut a day or two off the nearly week-long voyage from London to New York.
We now know that it would have been better for him to have increased the speed of the engines and gone around the iceberg. By backing down as he did, he exposed the Titanic's starboard side longer to the iceberg
The archives showed. Dr. McCarty said that for a half year, from late 1911 to April 1912, when the Titanic set sail, the company’s board discussed the problem at every meeting.
For instance, on Oct. 28, 1911, Lord William Pirrie, the company’s chairman, expressed concern over the lack of riveters and called for new hiring efforts.
. He thought it was more important to pamper the first-class passengers on this floating palace (for which tickets were $500,000 each in today's money)
Fleet manned one of the lifeboats, as he was supposed to do.
When the Titanic hit the iceberg, he surveyed the damage with Captain Smith and instantly knew he'd made an error. - 11:40 … 02:10
Fortunately, only 26 people died because immediately after the Titanic disaster, regulations were changed so that there was a lifeboat seat for every passenger.

The next challenge is fundamental to the way that Wave works. Because any user can start a new response to any part of the wave, or edit any existing part of the wave, it quickly becomes difficult to track what is happening. I admit that we were messing around, but the volume of text we had was relatively low, and it still became tedious tracking down which edits you’d read and which were new.
