This is a five minute presentation I gave at Ignite Sydney in October 2009, covering effective ways to promote yourself online without being evil. It is mostly applicable to the geek industry, but should be useful outside it as well.
This document provides guidance on using social media for evangelism and building online community. It discusses how social media use cuts across demographics and recommends assessing one's digital plan by listing current activities and goals. Effective levels of social media presence for a church include a website, Facebook page, and newsletters. Best practices for the Facebook page include regular posting, advertising the page, and running targeted ads. Developing community online requires trust, appreciation, hosting conversations, and cultivating superfans. The document also recommends great uses for Facebook groups and books with additional social media resources.
16 Keys To Effective Evangelism Colossians 4:2-6Rick Peterson
Keys To Effective Evangelism Colossians 4:2-6 Adapted from a Jeffery Anselmi sermon http://www.sermoncentral.com/print_friendly.asp?ContributorID=&SermonID=94959
This document provides an overview of online evangelism. It discusses the need for online evangelism given population growth and internet usage. It outlines best practices for spiritual and evangelistic preparation. It discusses different styles of sharing one's faith online and tips for building relationships on social media. The document also covers nurturing new believers and providing ongoing spiritual guidance online. Throughout it emphasizes the importance of relying on God and using online opportunities to point people to Jesus and his word.
The Protestant Reformation began in 1517 with Martin Luther publishing his 95 Theses challenging Catholic Church practices. Over the next century, reformers like Luther, Calvin, and Henry VIII promoted ideas like sola scriptura and challenged papal authority, leading northern Europe like Germany and Switzerland to adopt Protestantism as the dominant religion. The Catholic Church responded with the Counter-Reformation, reforming itself through the Council of Trent while also persecuting Protestants. Today, the Reformation continues to impact principles of religious freedom, separation of church and state, and widespread access to scripture in local languages.
Servant evangelism involves intentionally sharing one's faith through acts of service without any strings attached. It can be an effective way to reach people in today's culture and allows laypeople to creatively initiate ministry opportunities. Some examples provided include washing cars or windows, handing out snacks or other gifts, and serving the community through projects like car washes. The document emphasizes that people come to know Christ gradually through multiple exposures, so servant evangelism is meant to build bridges over time rather than expecting immediate conversions.
Customer evangelism is a new digital marketing practice that leverages existing happy customers to promote products and services to their social networks. As evangelists, satisfied customers engage in positive conversations to convert others. This organic word-of-mouth has been strengthened by digital platforms like Facebook and Twitter. Studies show customer referrals significantly increase purchase intent. Companies can encourage evangelism by making it easy for customers to refer products, being transparent about their identity online, and monitoring/participating in social media conversations. Measuring the results of evangelism tactics is important to prove their value.
This document provides an overview for a community evangelism seminar focusing on prayer and evangelism. It discusses the importance of prayer in evangelism efforts, outlines different ways to pray for evangelism and lost people, and provides tips for prayer walking in the community to spread the gospel.

Creating an automatic marketing culture
Are you one of those people who rarely forwards emails? Yet on that rare occasion, something strikes you as special--and you are inspired to 'pass-it-on.' Something about it clicked with you. Perhaps you can't even explain it; a certain ... je ne sais quoi. That 'something' is often described by marketers as "stickiness."
Stickiness is typically associated with "Viral Marketing." But who wants to spread a virus? When we connect with a message, a video, a website--we automatically engage with it, and want to share it. We don't even have to be asked, because it's automatic.
Attend this Lunch & Learn to discover 5 things your organization can do to grow an automatic marketing culture--and have your messages exponentially spread by your constituents.

Communication is the process of sharing ideas, thoughts, and feelings between people so they can understand each other. It involves a source sending a message through a channel that is received by the intended audience. For communication to be effective, the receiver must understand the message. Technology now plays an important role in communication by making the process faster and allowing it to reach more people through different channels. However, barriers like language differences or distractions can interfere with effective communication.

More Social, Less Media: Harnessing the Power of Human Connection to Achieve ...Molly Guingrich
(Presented at Drupal Texas Camp June 3, 2017 - Austin, TX)
What is your organization's most valuable asset? Is it your many accolades, the high dollar projects won, or perhaps the awesome office space you get to work in each day? If you aren't sure, or answered yes to any of the above - this talk is for you.
In an industry where it is so easy to get caught up in looking at what the other guys and gals are doing to win more projects, be more hip, or craft the better blog post of the "top 5 ways to be really awesome at all the webby things", we can all use a reminder to harness the power of what really sets any business apart: your people. The unique, collective experience of the people around you (or just yourself!) is hands down the most marketable asset that will give your business the edge it's been looking for.
In this session, we'll talk about how to cut through the noise that can often be caused by trying to keep up with industry trends, and how to get to the heart of what your organization - large or small - really has to offer to the world. Every single team member has something to offer to your potential clients that is marketable, and helps set your team apart from the competition, or even makes you a great potential partner for other businesses, digital agencies and Drupal shops.
Check out this presentation to learn more about:
- ways to uncover the hidden strengths of your team
- co-marketing with current customers
- defining your key differentiators
- questions to ask your clients
- how to make the most of in person events
Similar to Selling Yourself Online Chrismills (20)
The document discusses ways to improve the efficiency, extensibility, and flexibility of the web, including through streams, WebAssembly, web components, service workers, and progressive web apps. Streams allow programmatic access to streams of data from the network. WebAssembly allows running compiled code in the browser faster than JavaScript. Web components define custom elements with encapsulated code. Service workers enable offline functionality and caching. Progressive web apps provide native app-like experiences through features like installing offline, home screen icons, and full screen.
Feedback handling, community wrangling, panhandlin’Chris Mills
Feedback is a big deal. As tech writers we want to receive adultation when the docs rock, or constructive criticism when there is cleanup required. Or EVEN BETTER, we want the engineers/community members/reddit readers/clowns giving the feedback to come on board and help fix the problems.
But. Actually tweaking the signal to noise ratio to something useful is really difficult. Especially when you are curating a site as enormous as MDN, the content of which is open licensed, multilingual, and open for public editing.
In this talk, MDN writer Chris Mills discusses topics such as how to choose the right feedback mechanism(s) for your situation, how to stem the torrent and get the right kind of feedback and contributions (actually useful), effective begging, stealing and borrowing, and how to balance being firm and keeping control of your product with being diplomatic and being able to sleep at night.
Web developers now have a large number of APIs available allowing them to harness complex functionality via JavaScript and produce ever more interesting web experiences. This presentation looks at where we can from, where APIs are going in the future, and what problems we are currently in the process of solving. This includes providing offline installation, multimedia, performance, and more.
APIsNow, and in the future discusses the evolution of browser JavaScript APIs. It describes how early APIs allowed new features like geolocation and canvas but more were needed to compete with native apps and improve multimedia, performance, and internationalization support. New APIs like Service Workers and Fetch help enable offline functionality while standards like WebRTC improve media capabilities. The talk argues the web is progressing through continued standardization of device and other APIs.
This presentation shares some ideas and insights on Guerrilla education that may help in improving learning experiences related to the Web and web development/design. It also gives thoughts on Mozilla's new education tools and where things are going in the near future.
In this talk, Chris Mills discusses the historic problems with web apps and which technologies are stepping up to fill the holes. This includes device APIs such as Web Activities, Camera, device orientation and nfc, offline apps (which are finally looking realistic thanks to service workers), installable apps, and high quality games and other immersive high performance experiences using such features as Web audio API, Pointer lock, asm.js and Emscripten.
This set of slides accompanies the MDN workshop held at BrazilJS 2014. It features a guide to getting started with contributing to the Mozilla Developer Network documentation resource, and links to JavaScript and API work to get started on.
This document discusses empowering the mobile web. It begins by defining the mobile web as the web experienced on mobile devices, with considerations for usability and responsiveness. It then addresses concerns about the web versus native apps, and outlines Mozilla's solutions including their app ecosystem with installable apps, the Firefox OS mobile platform, and APIs that allow web apps to access device capabilities. The document also covers developer experience tools and techniques to improve web app performance.
The document discusses various options for publishing documentation, including traditional publishing, self-publishing, online publishing through blogs, wikis, and packaged documentation. It argues that a hybrid approach combining several of these methods is best, allowing content to be updated instantly online and fed into packaged documentation. Building an engaged community around the documentation is also emphasized through communication channels, contributions, feedback mechanisms, and common interests or goals.
The document provides guidance on contributing to the Mozilla Developer Network (MDN) by making edits and additions. Some key points:
1. Contributing can be done for personal benefit, to help one's projects, or to benefit the wider development community by improving documentation.
2. Contributions can range from small fixes to larger additions like writing new articles, translations, or code samples.
3. The process involves creating an account, finding pages to edit or improve, and making changes - with reviewers able to revert anything problematic.
4. Contributors are encouraged to ask questions on mailing lists or IRC if unsure and to work with others in the community.
For years when designing web sites we'e had to use a lot of of image files--a lot!--for anything and everything. And I’m moving beyond content images here, thinking more about background images for textures, gradients, interesting borders, rounded corners, transparency, drop shadows, interesting fonts, and more.
This contributed to the whole experience being complicated, inflexible, and inefficient, with loads of assets and HTTP requests to deal with. Fast forward to the modern day, and the good news is that CSS now provides us with a lot of new tools for programmatically creating images for many common uses, making things a whole lot easier to handle.
In this talk Chris Mills will touch upon a number of more widely supported featured such as gradients, border-radius, border-image, and box-shadow, before moving on to what we can expect a bit further down the line with more nascent features like shaders, filters and masks. In addition, he will also briefly discuss what can be done about older browsers that do not support such features.
This is the full version of my main presentation for 2013, providing an overview of the most interesting new layout features available in CSS3, along with advice on supporting older browsers, and some context around why they are important.
This version of my main presentation for 2013, first given at the Camp Digital event in Manchester, provides an overview of the most interesting new layout features available in CSS3, along with advice on supporting older browsers, and some context around why they are important.
This presentation is a discussion of good and bad accessibility practices, leading up to the point that accessibility that accessibility should not be a separate subject, but instead should be a mandatory part of good web design.
This talk was given at the responsive web design event at Manchester Metropolitan university on December 5th 2012. It looks at responsive design from the standards perspective, starting with history, and how we got to where we are now, and looking at the technologies available for practicing RWD in the modern day and in the near future.
The world is now officially device-crazy!
Just look at the number of Mobile phones and tablets sold recently, and the number of ordinary people (not just geeks) who have a mobile device and a tablet in addition to their desktop computer, or have even dispensed with the desktop computer altogether.
It would be foolish of us to just design for desktop, or just for mobile. What we need is a way to optimize our layouts for a multitude of different screen sizes and other factors!
In this talk Chris Mills looks at media queries and viewport in detail:
Their origins in media types
Why media types failed for mobile and devices, and why media queries will succeed
Media query basics
Practical examples of how they work across modern browsers and devices
Exploring viewport - why it is needed, and how best to use viewport and MQ's together
A look forward to the future, and the @viewport proposal
Mobile first versus desktop first
The IE problem, and how we can slay that beast in this particular context
Device breakpoints versus content breakpoints. What works best?
Adapt and respond: keeping responsive into the futureChris Mills
Media queries blah blah blah. You've all heard that talk a hundred times, so I won't do that. Instead, I'll go beyond the obvious, looking at what we can do today to adapt our front-ends to different browsing environments, from mobiles and other alternative devices to older browsers we may be called upon to support.
You'll learn advanced media query and viewport tricks, including a look at @viewport, Insights into responsive images: problems, and current solutions, providing usable alternatives to older browsers with Modernizr and YepNope, other CSS3 responsive goodness - multi-col, Flexbox, and more, and finally where RWD is going — matchMedia, CSS4 media queries, etc.
Angels versus demons: balancing shiny and inclusiveChris Mills
The modern web developer faces a moral choice when creating sites and apps. The angel on your shoulder tells you to use standards and respect accessibility across users of AT, older browsers, mobile, etc. The devil on your other shoulder meanwhile tells you to use all the shiny, satisfy your ego, and leave user agents over two weeks old in the dust.
This talk walks you through the dilemma, looking at the perils of embracing the serpent and presenting solutions that will allow you to achieve a satisfactory compromise. We know the devil has all the good albums, and we want to rock out as much as you do! But not at the expense of the Web’s greatest strengths!
HTML5 and CSS3: does now really mean now?Chris Mills
Code at http://people.opera.com/cmills/css3book/css3-html5-dnrmn.zip. The browser vendors love them! The browser fans and cutting edge designers are producing some really remarkable stuff, but what do HTML5 and CSS3 really mean for you, the pragmatic designer on the street? If you sidle up to one of those guys and whisper "but what about IE6 support", they are likely to slap you in the face, or run away with their hands clamped over their ears, yelling "la lala lala, I can't hear you." In this talk, Chris Mills will have a look at some of the new features of HTML5 and CSS3 - new semantics, video, media queries, rounded corners, web fonts, drop shadows and more. He will show real world examples, and then look at how they actually perform on those shady older browsers we are often called on to support. He will then look at strategies for providing support for those older browsers, including using JavaScript, fallbacks, and progressive enhancement.
This presentation was given at the Greenwich university "Talk web design" day, 11th January 2012. It discusses what open web standards are and why they are a better alternative to proprietary technologies, what the W3C is and how web standards are created, and what relationship the W3C has with the rest of the web community.

High performance Serverless Java on AWS- GoTo Amsterdam 2024Vadym Kazulkin
Java is for many years one of the most popular programming languages, but it used to have hard times in the Serverless community. Java is known for its high cold start times and high memory footprint, comparing to other programming languages like Node.js and Python. In this talk I'll look at the general best practices and techniques we can use to decrease memory consumption, cold start times for Java Serverless development on AWS including GraalVM (Native Image) and AWS own offering SnapStart based on Firecracker microVM snapshot and restore and CRaC (Coordinated Restore at Checkpoint) runtime hooks. I'll also provide a lot of benchmarking on Lambda functions trying out various deployment package sizes, Lambda memory settings, Java compilation options and HTTP (a)synchronous clients and measure their impact on cold and warm start times.

[OReilly Superstream] Occupy the Space: A grassroots guide to engineering (an...Jason Yip
The typical problem in product engineering is not bad strategy, so much as “no strategy”. This leads to confusion, lack of motivation, and incoherent action. The next time you look for a strategy and find an empty space, instead of waiting for it to be filled, I will show you how to fill it in yourself. If you’re wrong, it forces a correction. If you’re right, it helps create focus. I’ll share how I’ve approached this in the past, both what works and lessons for what didn’t work so well.
How information systems are built or acquired puts information, which is what they should be about, in a secondary place. Our language adapted accordingly, and we no longer talk about information systems but applications. Applications evolved in a way to break data into diverse fragments, tightly coupled with applications and expensive to integrate. The result is technical debt, which is re-paid by taking even bigger "loans", resulting in an ever-increasing technical debt. Software engineering and procurement practices work in sync with market forces to maintain this trend. This talk demonstrates how natural this situation is. The question is: can something be done to reverse the trend?
