Let the EatWith Cake - Satisfying a Hungry Global CommunityJoel Serra Bevin
EatWith is an online platform that connects passionate home cooks with foodie travelers looking for an authentic experience. Step inside the home of a local, let them cook dinner for you and share the evening with them and other locals/travelers and you will leave with a lasting memory. As EatWith scales into a global community, one of the key challenges is to maintain the integrity of this hyper-local experience and this presentation looks at how we are doing this in 2014.

Fundamentals of Building a Global CommunityJennifer Lopez
Presented as a part of Digital Olympus on February 5, 2017. Time to take your community to the next level. Jen Sable Lopez, Director of Global Communities at Welocalize, walks you through the necessary steps to help your community grow with international strength.
Hiring the right fit for the right role is the most important thing you will probably ever do as manager. Use these three basic questions to define the role, responsibilities and requirements to successfully hire your next social media or community manager.
Online communities have moved to the top
of the strategic marketing and customer
care agenda at many organizations. A study
conducted by Demand Metric “Online
Communities: Driving Customer Engagement
& Influencing Revenue” (September 2014)
revealed that building an online community is a
top priority. Two-thirds of companies surveyed
have online communities and among those that
don’t there is a trend to consider building one
in the future. Additionally, among those who
have online communities, the reported benefits
include a better understanding of customer/
prospect needs, a more loyal customer base,
better customer perception of the brand, and
improved customer support quality. All of
these strategic initiatives are powered by digital
engagement using online communities. But
despite the strategic focus, turning these “top
priority” initiatives into functional and successful
business activities is unfamiliar territory for many
organizations.
One major stumbling block? Turning the
sometimes fuzzy and hard-to-grasp-and-explain
benefits of an online community into a business
case; a proposal which clearly demonstrates the
value of the community to the organization’s
bottom line.
Marketing and customer care leaders are often
the first to recognize the need for an online
community, and may take the lead on creating
one. But if the project begins by acquiring a
software platform prior to developing a business
case, the success of the online community
is already in jeopardy. The time, effort and
cost required to retrofit or replace a software
platform which did not fulfill the organization’s
real business needs -- or deliver the necessary
bottom-line results -- has killed many an online
community initiative. Building a business case
for your online community is essential to its
long-term success. This short but detailed report
covers the crucial steps to building a persuasive
business case -- the roadmap for building a
successful online community.
This report draws on Leader Network’s many
years of online community strategy, best
practice and implementation experience, and
in-depth interviews with eight successful online
community leaders with real-world examples
to back up their suggestions and advice.
Community building is not about social media. It’s about people. It’s not about how many followers you have. It’s about truly becoming a valuable brand and then building an engaged audience around it. This deck walks through three of the biggest building blocks of community: the tools, the process, and the measurement.

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.
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.

PHP Frameworks: I want to break free (IPC Berlin 2024)Ralf Eggert
In this presentation, we examine the challenges and limitations of relying too heavily on PHP frameworks in web development. We discuss the history of PHP and its frameworks to understand how this dependence has evolved. The focus will be on providing concrete tips and strategies to reduce reliance on these frameworks, based on real-world examples and practical considerations. The goal is to equip developers with the skills and knowledge to create more flexible and future-proof web applications. We'll explore the importance of maintaining autonomy in a rapidly changing tech landscape and how to make informed decisions in PHP development.
This talk is aimed at encouraging a more independent approach to using PHP frameworks, moving towards a more flexible and future-proof approach to PHP development.
