Looking at how social media is influencing the way we consume news, who can produce and publish news and how these new platforms are influencing journalistic practices
Presentation by Miguel Gomez about Youth and New media given at the 9/21/10 amfAR Congressional Briefing, "HIV/AIDS and Youth: Moving Toward an HIV-Free Generation"
In today’s online news environment, the story never ends. And now there are more stories than ever before. So how do you ensure your news gets the attention it deserves? In this presentation, you'll learn about the reality of today’s newsrooms; how to build relationships and target your news effectively; the need for quality multimedia assets, and incorporating continuous measurement to adjust your strategy for success.
Understanding and Implementing Innovation in News Media and JournalismDamian Radcliffe
It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a media company in possession of a good fortune (an audience, brand recognition and decent revenues), must (still) be in want of innovation.
The pace of change in our industry means that even the biggest, most successful, companies need to continually innovate, refresh and reinvent what they do and how they do it. Those who don’t risk being left behind, overtaken by digital upstarts, or blown away by more established players with deeper pockets and a longer transformational runway.
I asked 10 experts — leading media practitioners, researchers and scholars around the world — for their insights around what constitutes innovation, the barriers to implementing it, and how to overcome these roadblocks.

GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms. He is known for his dynamic presentations in CI/CD and application security integrated in software delivery lifecycle.
Gopinath Rebala
Gopinath Rebala is the CTO of OpsMx, where he has overall responsibility for the machine learning and data processing architectures for Secure Software Delivery. Gopi also has a strong connection with our customers, leading design and architecture for strategic implementations. Gopi is a frequent speaker and well-known leader in continuous delivery and integrating security into software delivery.

"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.

Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.

Connector Corner: Automate dynamic content and events by pushing a buttonDianaGray10
Here is something new! In our next Connector Corner webinar, we will demonstrate how you can use a single workflow to:
Create a campaign using Mailchimp with merge tags/fields
Send an interactive Slack channel message (using buttons)
Have the message received by managers and peers along with a test email for review
But there’s more:
In a second workflow supporting the same use case, you’ll see:
Your campaign sent to target colleagues for approval
If the “Approve” button is clicked, a Jira/Zendesk ticket is created for the marketing design team
But—if the “Reject” button is pushed, colleagues will be alerted via Slack message

30. How is Social Media Changing Communication? 1. It’s changing the way we READ “ It is clear that users are not reading online in the traditional sense; indeed there are signs that new forms of ‘reading’ are emerging as users ‘power browse’ horizontally through titles, contents pages and abstracts going for quick wins. It almost seems that they go online to avoid reading in the traditional sense.” --The “Information Behaviour of the Researcher of the Future” study
31. 2. It’s changing the way we WRITE “ I’ve been an editor for 20-plus years. But Twitter… has become my mid-career editing coach.…If I were teaching journalism…I’d have students edit 500-word stories as Tweets. Not for the result, but the process. I’ve edited miles of copy in my day. Nonetheless, I find that every time I sit down to write a meaningful Tweet I hone my craft a bit more.” --Craig Stoltz, ex-Washington Post, “How Twitter Finally Taught Me to be an Editor”
32. 3. It’s changing the way access INFORMATION “ If the news is that important, it will find me.” 4. It’s making communication more EFFICIENT
36. Making it hard to get senior management buy-in and making a good business case for social media in government…
37. Truth is… it’s a learning curve for any new technology. People are learning the rules as it develops. Except these rules are determined by human behaviour. Therefore we need both sceptics and enthusiasts to work together to find a winning solution.
39. Talking about fear for security… Hey did I mention the U.S. Air Force is using social media and have already developed best practices? Their mission is to use current and developing Web 2.0 applications as a way to actively engage conversations between Airmen and the general public.

Executives in the book industry have long understood that the Internet can help authors connect with fans, of course. Major releases are usually backed by author videos, a Web site, and interviews with influential book bloggers.But Meyer, a 34-year-old mother of three from Phoenix, went well beyond standard marketing. She engaged with online readers to answer their most detailed questions about the star-crossed lovers, Edward Cullen and Bella Swan. She put up her own Web site, in addition to the one by her publisher, Little Brown Books for Young Readers, posting her personal e-mail address and family photos.Meyer’s readers have responded by creating an entire world of Twilight on the Web. Cousins Chris McElvogue and Georgina Tena launched Twilighters.org last year to discuss the books with other readers.Inspired online marketing is key to the astounding success of Twilight, a series of vampire novels.Is Meyers a marketing guru? Maybe the book industry thinks so, I don’t. I believe she just see the benefit of social networks to be in touch with her readers and her readers respond positively to this human approach. The ability of touching millions of people is making social networking a powerful tool that relies in the fundamental principles of human nature.
