Facebook is a social networking website launched in 2004 by Mark Zuckerberg and his Harvard classmates. It allows users to chat, share photos and videos, play games, and connect through groups and events. The document provides tips for staying safe on Facebook, such as keeping private information private, using strong passwords, and adjusting privacy settings. It also lists additional resources for internet safety. Facebook allows free communication between friends and for finding people with shared interests, though it should be used in moderation and for positive purposes only.
Impact of social networking sites- advantages and disadvantagesNi
Social networking sites allow users to create profiles and form relationships with other users. They provide advantages like fast communication, sharing interests and information with friends. However, they also have disadvantages such as lacking emotional connection, decreasing face-to-face skills, and reducing family closeness. Social networking sites also enable users to communicate directly but can facilitate laziness and create distractions.
What's new on legacy social media platformsAmy Vernon
Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest & Gmail - what's the latest changes to these platforms? I detail what the latest changes are to these old-school platforms.
Ever get the impression that Facebook, Twitter and the like are just "for the kids"? How about us old folks, you know, people over thirty. Can we get any value out of this social networking "stuff"? Sure we can. This presentation runs through some of "the stuff" (Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIN), and shares some considerations for using them in a safe, effective manner, whether it is to build and promote a strong personal brand online, maintain a strong personal and professional network, or all of the above.
Social networks allow people to communicate globally and reconnect with friends and family. They serve as centralized hubs where users can share updates and find professional connections. Popular social media sites include Facebook, LinkedIn, and Pinterest. While social networks enable widespread connections, they also pose risks like cyberbullying and oversharing of private details. Employers are able to leverage social media to find qualified candidates.

UX Week Presentation from Steve Portigal - Cross-Cultural ResearchSteve Portigal
Effective user research requires both observation and interviewing. When doing research we strive to get outside our own default expectations and perceptions, in order to better see the details of what we're looking at, in other words, to understand the cultural context. This third component is the most crucial to innovation. Interesting things happen when we leave our homes and our comfort zone, perhaps in another country where business, language, food, and more is beyond our own frames of reference.
Steve Portigal, founder of Portigal Consulting, offers expert tips in both observation and interviewing, and considers the challenges and opportunities in conducting research abroad. He believes that one way to better understand a different culture is to look at how things in your own culture are handled differently. He gives some examples of how some things are promoted differently in Japan than in the United States. He states that mundane observations reveal important cultural differences.
Facebook was created in 2004 by Mark Zuckerberg, originally as a dating site for Harvard students. It soon became a social networking site for friends to connect and share information. Users can post status updates, photos, videos and connect with friends and others. While it allows advertising and sharing of information, some negatives include oversharing of personal information and issues with privacy and appropriate use.

Intro to Social Media for DSFRS - 22nd July2010Carl Haggerty
The document provides an overview of social media and guidelines for its use. It discusses what social media is, key sites like Facebook and Twitter, and how to engage existing online communities. It emphasizes listening first before publishing, identifying communities, empowering user participation, and adapting to changes while maintaining the focus on connections with users. The main points are to not focus on technology, follow the one rule of participation, and take the six steps of listening, identifying communities, empowering involvement, engaging with users, nurturing ownership, and keeping up but asking if it's needed.
A student's digital footprint can impact their job applications, school admission, and reputation if not carefully managed. A digital footprint is a record of all information about a person online, including what they post, websites they join, photos uploaded of them, and information others post about them. Students are advised to be careful about what they share online in order to curate a positive digital footprint.
Using technology and social networks can help YPO engage younger professionals, but there are barriers. Social networks create a lot of noise that can drown out organizations. YPO should not abandon traditional methods and should be clear about what value they provide. They need to act as good hosts on social networks and ensure their offerings are worth the time and attention of younger professionals.
The document discusses several social networking sites from the perspective of parents and their concerns. It provides information on Facebook, Friendster, Hi5, and Myspace. For Facebook, it notes when it started and the founder. For Friendster, it discusses the history and advantages/disadvantages. For Hi5, it lists pros like photo sharing but notes concerns about stalking. For Myspace, it states some sex crimes have been linked to the site.
The document discusses how mainstream media can adapt to the rise of social media and online conversations. It argues that media companies need to embrace social networking tools, listen to their audiences, and get involved in online and offline discussions in order to remain relevant. The author provides tips for how media brands can build communities and engage with influential online users. The overall message is that media must shift from a passive, top-down approach to an active, two-way model that centers around conversations in order to thrive in today's digital landscape.
This talk outlines ways to make yourself known effectively on the Internet and create the image you want rather than the one that is built by your friends or your travels.
Social web refers to how people communicate and connect online through social media sites like Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Myspace, Gmail, Google, and Yahoo mail. Different social media sites allow sharing of different types of content such as photos, videos, messages, and email. Using social media safely depends on how private or public users make their information and what they share about themselves.
This segment is only a small part of a larger workshop in which coalitions consider who they are, where they are and what kinds of communications needs they have before selecting tools.

hello world: the 2010 web and the enterpriseDenise Howell
This document discusses how social media has evolved beyond just a personal communication tool and is now widely used for commercial, business, educational, and other purposes. It notes that distinguishing between different contexts and arenas for social media use can be difficult. It provides advice on appropriate social media use and potential legal issues to consider, such as security, identity theft, intellectual property protection, and differing legal standards globally. It emphasizes the importance of having simple social media policies and training in place, as well as being prepared for potential crises.
1. The document provides tips on how to network effectively and avoid common mistakes like being unprepared, talking too much about yourself, or failing to follow up with new contacts.
2. It outlines six steps to improve your voice when networking, including controlling your breathing, varying pitch, and articulating clearly.
3. Successful networking traits include timely follow up, a positive attitude, trustworthiness, good listening skills, and commitment to networking.
This document discusses social networking and communication literacy. It explains that social networking sites allow for easy and timely connection between people to exchange and share information. Socialization is defined as the process of acquiring social skills and norms to integrate into a group. Offline socialization involves conversing, smiling, listening and keeping an open body language, while online socialization requires being careful with words and content. It also discusses how people curate their identity and self-representation through the photos and profiles they choose to share online, and warns that a digital footprint traces all online activity, impacting reputation.
The document discusses the evolution of social media and how it has changed communication. It defines social media as consisting of content, communities, communication and connections. It then gives examples of popular social media sites and tools for sharing different types of content like photos, videos, locations. The document concludes by describing how the author, Jez, uses various social media platforms in a typical day to engage with friends, follow interests, and generate publicity for his work.
The document discusses how the internet and emerging technologies are changing people's identities. It notes that as the web has spread into every aspect of daily life, people's identities have gone public with profiles on multiple social networks and websites.

Michael Altendorf discusses how the internet and emerging technologies are changing concepts of personal identity. As the web permeates all aspects of daily life by 2020, individuals will have multiple, fluid online identities across social networks and digital platforms that are constantly tracked and stored in massive databases. While this development ends privacy and anonymity, it also allows people to curate and express different aspects of themselves through various virtual identities. However, individuals must consider who truly shapes and controls their digital identity in this new paradigm.
Teigland_Creating Personal Success through Networks and Social MediaRobin Teigland
The document discusses how personal and professional success can be achieved through networking and social media. It recommends developing a variety of strong and weak ties within and outside one's organization using both online and offline networks. It also suggests being selective, active, and creating awareness in networks by maintaining an online profile and presence. The key is to network broadly across different communities and with people who are diverse rather than just those similar to oneself.
The document discusses social networking and online communities. It defines social networks as relationships between individuals, whether through family, friends, work or other connections. These networks exist both offline and can extend online through sites that allow people to connect and share content. Examples discussed include early online communities from the 1970s through the rise of modern social media sites like Facebook, Twitter and YouTube that have enabled new ways of networking and participating in online communities.
Social networking has evolved significantly from early platforms like CompuServe and AOL to today's major sites like Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn. The presentation traces the history and growth of social networking, highlighting both benefits like staying connected with others and risks involving privacy and identity theft. It also lists popular current social media sites and discusses issues of protecting personal information online through privacy settings.

Social Usability is defined by four properties (RICE): relations, identity, communication, emergence of groups.
Social media refers to interactive online technologies that facilitate dialogue and sharing between users. It includes social networking sites, social bookmarking sites, wikis, social photo and video sharing sites, and more. The document discusses why social media is important for creating personal brands, building relationships, learning and sharing knowledge, and entertainment. It provides dos and don'ts for using various social media platforms like Facebook, blogs, and LinkedIn effectively and safely. The key message is that the goal of social media is to enable, inspire and influence others through engaging conversations.
Social media and the future of social networkingRussetanSc
Social media has evolved greatly over time and will continue to change the future. It started with basic communication tools like email and phones and now includes large social networks like Facebook and Twitter. These platforms have had major impacts on society such as influencing political movements and revolutions. However, increased social media use has also led to growing concerns around privacy, identity issues, cybercrime, and other negative impacts. Looking ahead, social networking will likely become even more integrated into work, education, and daily life, but these developments also may exacerbate existing problems with privacy, addiction, and mental health issues related to social media use.
In this workshop we introduce the concept of Social Usability and we will make people use a very hands-on way to use it to design and analyse systems, not necessarily digital.
This is the workshop we did at LIFT13 on Feb 8th.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.
