The oneVillage Community Day Presentation was given at 10am on Sept 27, 2009 at the Technology Bldg in Taipei Taiwan. The presentation gives an overview of our work particularly in relation to what the 1st Community Day event was about in July supporting the oneVillage Ecotour Service and Learning Program. As part of this program, 10 students from National Tsing Hua Univ traveled to Ghana for the month of Aug. During their time in Ghana, they shared experiences with each other and the local people, while aiding in various development efforts organized by our affiliate OVF Ghana. We see this as a model development effort that links projects and people with ICT and in many cases supports the development of Open Source solutions in the field.
Next Gen: Critical Conversations Slide DeckGovLoop
How many times have you run into conflict with a colleague? In a one-on-one meeting with your supervisor? Working as a team with your peers? Or even publicly questioned? No matter what we do, there are going to be moments of discontent.

Building Powerful Outreach - Executive Research BriefGovLoop
You’ve done the research. You’ve gotten leadership buy-in. Your government program is set to start helping people. But if nobody knows about it, your program will never make a difference. It’s like if a public health department had prepared thousands of flu shots, but no patients showed up to get them. In this brief, we will tell you how to empower your outreach.
NoSQL is not only SQL, so it’s structured and unstructured data AND much of it is very important data, data that requires enterprise-grade features. I’m referring to all the features of Relational databases that large enterprises expect

Build Better Virtual Events and Training for Your Agency
Meet In-Person to Learn How to Thrive Online
Conferences are being canceled, and training budgets have been trimmed, but government personnel still need to learn the latest developments in their areas of expertise. That's the crux of the problem facing agency leaders and human resources professionals that want to sustain a top-notch government workforce. Moving in-person events and training to an online forum is one solution, but it's not always easy to do it well.
A successful virtual training program has 3 key ingredients:
An interactive technology platform
Just-in-time, relevant content
Active facilitation by a skilled moderator

In ways yet to be seen, cybersecurity has already affected the “agency of the future.” Today, the world is interconnected like never before. As a nation, we must work collaboratively to ensure that cyber defense strategies are robust and effective to secure our way of life.
President Obama said during remarks at the White House, “the cyber threat is one of the most serious economic and national security challenges we face as a nation” and that “America’s economic prosperity in the 21st century will depend on cybersecurity.”
Throughout his tenure, President Obama has directed agencies to conduct a thorough analysis of the Federal Government’s efforts to protect data, information, communication and critical infrastructure. Often, we forget that every day Americans rely on cyber defense for our economic viability and security.
Cyber includes much more than just our personal identity and social security numbers. Every day, cyber defense is used to protect:
Broadband networks
Information networks that power business, hospitals and schools
Critical infrastructure
Classified government intelligence and documents
