Fostering an Ecosystem for Smartphone PrivacyJason Hong
This document discusses fostering an ecosystem for smartphone privacy. It notes that over 1 billion smartphones are sold each year, containing intimate personal data. The researcher's work focused on studying app privacy and building tools like PrivacyGrade.org to grade apps. Studies showed developers have low awareness of privacy issues and tools. The document calls for a better ecosystem where the burden of privacy is shared, and provides opportunities for others to help like improving incentives for developers or addressing economic issues.
The document discusses what it means to be a "geek" and focuses on providing advice and information for pursuing a career in information technology, emphasizing the importance of hands-on learning, obtaining certifications in areas like networking and security, and having a passion for the field in order to find success. It also highlights how being a "geek" can be financially lucrative as exemplified by the multi-billion dollar net worths of tech industry leaders like Bill Gates, Larry Ellison, and Steve Jobs.
This study examined the effect of technology on face-to-face communication. A survey of 100 Elon University students and observations of students on campus found that:
1) Students spend significant time using technology, with most reporting over 4 hours of daily use.
2) The majority of students bring their devices with them at all times and use them even when spending time with others.
3) Over 90% of students believe technology negatively impacts face-to-face interactions and degrades conversation quality.
4) Nearly half of students communicate more via technology than in person, indicating face-to-face interactions have decreased.
The findings suggest that while awareness of the issue exists, technology continues to replace face-to
Far Beyond Smartphones - David Wood - H+ Summit @ HarvardHumanity Plus
Far Beyond Smartphones:
Lessons From Disruptive Technology, Open collaboration, and Breakthrough Mobile products
David Wood has spent more than 20 years envisioning, architecting, implementing, supporting, and avidly using smart mobile devices (devices that can also be called "personal electronic brains"): ten years with PDA manufacturer Psion PLC, and then ten more with smartphone operating system specialist Symbian Ltd. He was centrally involved in preparations and planning for the open source Symbian Foundation. Over that time, many lessons have emerged, highly relevant to the H+ mission to explore how humanity will be radically changed by technology in the near future:
What factors cause both spurts and slowdowns in technology development? What enables new technology visions to "cross the chasm" towards mainstream adoption? Given the history of improvements in smart mobile devices over the last 20 years, what can we realistically expect in the next 20 years? How credible is the vision of mobile devices helping billions of people to collect data that can be used for science and advance human knowledge? To what extent can technological progress be foreseen, and to what extent is the process chaotic, risky, and even dangerous?
David Wood spent ten years with PDA manufacturer Psion PLC, and then ten more with smartphone operating system specialist Symbian Ltd, where he was co-founder and executive vice president.
His background includes: many years building and integrating UI system software and application frameworks in 16-bit and 32-bit versions of “EPOC” software (later named “Symbian OS”); growing and directing the technical consulting teams that worked with leading phone manufacturers to create the world’s first successful smartphones; and defining and running development programs to stimulate and nurture the fast-growing Symbian partner ecosystem.
From the first half of 2008, he was involved in preparations and planning for the independent open source Symbian Foundation. He served on the Leadership Team of the Symbian Foundation as “Catalyst and Futurist” until October 2009. I continue these same roles from within Delta Wisdom.
He has an MA in Mathematics from Cambridge University and an honorary doctorate in science from the University of Westminster.
In September 2009 he was included in T3's list of "100 most influential people in technology": http://tech100.t3.com/list/80-61/.

Essentials of Automations: Exploring Attributes & Automation ParametersSafe Software
Building automations in FME Flow can save time, money, and help businesses scale by eliminating data silos and providing data to stakeholders in real-time. One essential component to orchestrating complex automations is the use of attributes & automation parameters (both formerly known as “keys”). In fact, it’s unlikely you’ll ever build an Automation without using these components, but what exactly are they?
Attributes & automation parameters enable the automation author to pass data values from one automation component to the next. During this webinar, our FME Flow Specialists will cover leveraging the three types of these output attributes & parameters in FME Flow: Event, Custom, and Automation. As a bonus, they’ll also be making use of the Split-Merge Block functionality.
You’ll leave this webinar with a better understanding of how to maximize the potential of automations by making use of attributes & automation parameters, with the ultimate goal of setting your enterprise integration workflows up on autopilot.
