“What Kind of City do the People Want? Bringing Opinion Research into the Dig...PlaceSpeak Inc.
Presentation at the Community Indicators Consortium Impact Summit 2013. PlaceSpeak has emerged as a consultation tool at a time when traditional methods of public engagement are becoming contentious, expensive and unreliable. Because it builds up a user base of citizens interested in particular topics and/or particular geographic areas, PlaceSpeak has the potential to establish continuing interactive relationships between citizens and their local governments in a way that is convenient and respects privacy. Examples of practical applications will be provided in the presentation.

When we think of the process for attacking an organization, OSINT comes to the front and center of our minds. This presentation takes a presenter with experience in applying OSINT to effective penetration testing and social engineering and reverse engineers the process to determine what steps can be taken to further complicate their efforts. This is a presentation that talks about online deception, decoy accounts, canary data, encryption, maintaining one’s social media in a secure manner, and protecting one’s identity as much as possible. While nothing is absolute, this is a presentation that will leave attendees more aware of techniques to make it harder for attackers to collect accurate OSINT, either by removal or deception.
Oikos workshop presentation on Social Media. The presentation takes a high-level strategy view of Social Media for small charities and community groups, along with providing statistics, hints and tips and some fun as we go.

21. Breakfast on the go
I was called into work Sunday
morning the 14th
unexpectedly and had about
30 minutes to get ready. I
grabbed breakfast at [c-store]
on the way, it was around
10am. I ate while I was
driving. I bought a sausage,
egg and cheese biscut. I took
the sausage out though
because I don't eat meat. I
also bought a Dasani water.
The [c-store] was on my way
to work, I wanted a hot
breakfast and it was less
expensive than going to
McDonald's.
