The report was jointly produced by Interactive Software and Sysomos.
The Future of Newspapers and Magazines in the Digital EraElastic Path
Our latest survey uncovers consumer behaviors and attitudes towards print and digital media that can inform an approach. Newspaper and magazine publishers that are committed to finding new ways of differentiating and continuously improving their offerings to better meet the needs of their readers will outlive competitors in this rapidly evolving digital era.
Overview of where we've come from, and where we're going... with an emphasis on social media usage in the USA and some key emerging global trends and behaviours.
The state of social media 2021
Few people would dispute that 2020 has been a decidedly unusual year. COVID-19 has turned the world on its head and changed the way we all live and do business. People worldwide have spent much of the year locked down and often had to operate their businesses from home. Zoom has almost become the de facto way to hold business meetings, and people have had to alter the way they communicate with each other.
This has led to a surge in Social Mediausage on many platforms, often in place of face-to-face meetings. Many employees have found themselves stuck at home with little to do and have increased their time on their favorite social media. This has increased the opportunities for inventive firms to engage in Social Mediamarketing – they have a social audience like never before. Simultaneously, many firms have transferred their budget away from other marketing media, deciding to follow their audience. It makes sense to shift your marketing energy to
Sprout Social and our customers are on the front lines of global social media management. In only a few short years, Sprout has seen first hand how consumers now use Facebook and Twitter as their primary means of communication with businesses. This shift has opened the door for free communication between brands and customers—but how are companies responding to the change?
In December 2013, we explored that question with The Sprout Social Index: Engagement & Customer Care. Our first installment uncovered the dramatic surge in inbound messages to brands, variations in social behavior across
Facebook and Twitter, and social data across 15 dierent industries.
For our second edition of The Sprout Social Index, we’ve benchmarked behavioral changes from the previous four quarters and uncovered continued trends, surprising shifts, and troublesome stats.
From the data, it is clear that an increasing portion of consumer-business interactions are moving past traditional phone and email into social media and mobile. The current status quo of silence and slow response from brands won’t be tolerated much longer. Businesses need to figure it out
and accommodate for the shift in communication or risk their
sustainability and profitability.
In this Index, we’ll explore the evolving social customer care landscape, identify industries that are excelling and note those that need improvement.

GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms.

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.

Here is How COVID-19 Transformed Online Social Media Communication
1. Here is How COVID-19 Transformed
Online Social Media Communication
We can’t help remembering the situation before COVID-19 hit the headlines.
After forwarding the data dealing with the most effective times to post on social
media, remotely working is commenced. Organizations and individuals alike
quickly changed their approach. They wished to help alleviate the virus. Suddenly,
daily work practices changed with more and more shopping online. Now it
became the turn of social media to bask in the limelight.
Amidst sweeping changes, we surveyed over 20,000 clients to check the altered
user of social media resources! You should be using the data to rethink
approaches in the light of audience preferences across a few months. What
happened that altered life forever is the global pandemic called COVID-19!
How did communication get across during the corona nightmare?
Ample Sprout resources inform social media administrators and teams to respond
to the pandemic and post updates.
Referring to the earlier analysis of ideal times to post in social media during the
present year, consider Sprout’s Optimal Send Times. The collection of data
regarding the best times is similar at an individual level too. Avoid guessing
regarding posting content and the ideal times with a free 30-day trial of Sprout
2. Social. Read further to be informed of how COVID-19 has altered social media
interactions:
● Updates to Facebook times to post
● Updates to Instagram times to post
● Updates to Twitter times to post
● Updates to LinkedIn times to post
● Changes in social media message volume
How COVID-19 brought changes to the best social media posting times
We compiled the data that constitutes the annual review of the best posting
times. Look at the most recent data that covers the middle of April 2020. By
3. considering the larger picture, it is obvious that the best times to post have
indeed changed. It is in response to more work and life activities going online. The
network-wise analysis will make it quite clear. By citing some network cases, the
best times have changed a lot within a few weeks, compared to the changes
across 2019 and early 2020.
Disclaimer: A variety of industries, locations and plan types constitute the users of
the Sprout Social data collection. Central Time Zone (CST) enabled all the time
frames. By the number of engagements is meant the brand’s total engagements
in a particular channel within that hourly time frame.
Updated Facebook best posting times
Earlier trends indicated that Wednesday showed heightened activity on
Facebook. Further, on Wednesday, the period between 11 A.M., and 1–2 P.M.
attracted the maximum engagement. The new emerging trends show that every
weekday experienced hectic activity throughout the day. Present-day data
indicate that 10–11 A.M. on Monday, Wednesday and Friday are the best times to
post on Facebook. Compared to other times during the day, each day shows
heightened activity at 11 A.M.
Much less intense activity is witnessed on weekdays after 5 P.M. and during
weekends. The rational reason is that remote workers face several home and
family pressures during that time after work. After the traditional working hours
end, family interests demand attention.
4. Updated Instagram best posting times
The Instagram changes appear similar to Facebook with longer stretches of
activity. The most preferred times these days during the very busy week for
Instagram posts is 11 A.M. on Monday, Tuesday and Friday. Additionally, 2 P.M.
on Tuesday is also equally favoured.
What was the situation earlier? The top engagement times used to be 11 A.M. on
Wednesday and 10 A.M.–1 A.M. on Friday.
Further changes are discerned now on Instagram in comparison to the past year.
The regular activity took place previously in the early mornings and late evenings.
5. The working hours of the day show regular activity now with a powerful
slackening witnessed after 6 P.M. In fact; weekends have become busy times on
Instagram now. Even on Sunday, when minimum posting activity was seen
previously, 9 A.M. to 5 P.M. shows increased regular activity.
When are the best times to post on Twitter?
When it comes to Twitter, activity times before and after COVID-19 show a
certain regularity, the probable reason is that the primary utility of the social
media platform is a rapid glance at the emerging news. Information concerning
6. the public related to lockdowns and quarantines according to the area was
displayed.
When are the best times to post on LinkedIn?
LinkedIn shows basically similar activity timings before and after COVID-19. That
makes a lot of sense since the social media platform is connected to professionals.
Some shifts in time are witnessed like Twitter. Earlier, busy times were
Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays. Wednesday: 8–10 A.M. Thursday: 9 A.M. as
well as 1–2 P.M. Friday: 9 A.M.
7. The new best times for LinkedIn have shifted to Wednesday 3 P.M., Thursday
9–10 A.M. and Friday 11–12 A.M.
However, starting and ending regular weekday timings are later in LinkedIn now
than previously. Engagements commence at 8 A.M. instead of the 7 A.M. before
and end at 4 P.M. rather than the 3 P.M. earlier. Causes? Probably, remote work
patterns have altered, including reduced internet browsing during and after travel
times.
How social media messaging volumes changed
8. By living through a new reality now amidst the pandemic, a researched attempt
was made to find changes. Comparing metrics related to message dimensions
would reveal the extent of change if any. The first quarter of 2020 is contrasted
with the April 2020 first fortnight in terms of messages sent and received. By
reviewing such dimensions across networks and industries, the audience
attention was deciphered.
Changes in brand behaviour
In terms of averages applied to networks and industries, numerically speaking,
the posts each day remained similar across Q1 and April 2020. Numbers of posts
decreased only by about 0.2 posts each day.
Concerning a few industries, the sent message numbers increased during this
period. Increases were seen in healthcare, media and amusement industries. The
reasons are easy to understand. Everybody wanted to be informed of the latest
news about the pandemic. In the days of social distancing, seeking inspiration and
entertainment became the most common pursuits.
Conversely, certain industries like travel and sports witnessed immensely reduced
numbers of posts. These industries had witnessed the suspension of regular
routines because of the pandemic, leading to huge losses. Sending messages is
also decreased in education, retail and consumer goods sectors, though not by
very much.
9. Studying the outgoing message numbers according to networks, they marginally
reduced across industries, considering averages:
● In Facebook, sent messages reduced by 1.8 posts each day.
● In Instagram, sent messages decreased by 1.9 posts a day.
● For Twitter, the outgoing messages declined by 2.3 posts every day.
Brands have to adjust their content strategies according to the changes.
Consistently re-evaluating policies and programs enables them to serve social
media communities well. Across March and April 2020, members showed
differences in their approaches and dealings with social media.
10. Member interaction with social media brands amidst COVID-19?
Similar to the study of the best times for social media interactions, we found
changes in the ways members interacted with the brands in April 2020, compared
to Q1 2020. The changes were rather extensive.
Incoming engagements witnessed a rapid increase on an average of 44 each day,
and that phenomenon applies to every network. By considering the number of
posts, the growth numbered 7.3 engagements per post per day.
Regarding tendencies, many examples matched the process indicated regarding
posting volumes related to industries. Along with consumer goods, healthcare,
11. media and entertainment witnessed massive increases in engagements each day.
No doubt, these sectors occupied the thoughts of many as lifestyles changed
dramatically and quickly. When you consider declining industries like sports and
retail selling, legal and non-profit industries, it was the result of changed
conditions. As the numbers and volumes of posts declined, so did engagements.
Engagements may be increasing, but incoming messages to brands reduced
significantly. On average, spread over every network, the decrease amounted to
19 messages each day. While comparing the first fortnight of April 2020 with Q1
2020, not a single industry showed an increase in incoming messages. Retail,
sports and non-profits experienced a significant decline.
Studied network-wise, Facebook and Twitter show such a trend:
● Facebook comments reduced by 5.6 each day.
● Facebook PMs dwindled by 2.1 every day.
● Twitter @ messages declined by 16 each day.
● Twitter retweets diminished by 20.8 every day.
By comparing the decline further between industries, Twitter interactions show a
drop in every industry. Facebook shows the decline in every sector except
healthcare, media and entertainment. In Facebook PMs, the media and
entertainment industry witnessed an increase in messages.
12. Regarding the only case of increased incoming messages, Instagram showed an
average increase of 6.4 comments per day. Considering the Instagram volume of
comments, consumer goods and media along with entertainment and software,
witnessed significant improvements, much higher than the average.
The cited information indicates how much social media interactions change
according to altered daily life activities. Within the space of a few weeks under
the impact of COVID-19, changes of devices and school and work impacted the
social media interaction patterns significantly. Restricted activities of study and
work had their dramatic effects on the networks.
13. What happens next?
Concerning the complex COVID-19 global drama, it seems entirely justified to say
that the next weeks and months will witness further changes in audience
interaction with social media. Research over a few months indicates that brands
need to prepare to face additional new challenges. Brands have to continually
remain on their toes and find new strategies according to the need of the hour.
Brands need to review past practices and develop a list of new priorities to face
the remainder of 2020.
By researching networks and industries, our findings serve as valuable guidelines
along which to proceed. Don’t neglect the data concerning the brand and scout
for the best opportunities to succeed. The impact of the pandemic has differed
across industries, according to the conditions and the work being affected. Brands
of whatever dimensions they may be must think of state-level responses as the
weeks’ progress amidst changing conditions. When it comes to user interactions,
feelings and behaviour, social media companies need to remain regularly
updated. Social data would provide all the ideas and understanding.
