Connectivity allows people to connect across devices and through social media to communicate worldwide. Facebook Zero and Wikipedia Zero provide free mobile data access to their sites in developing countries to encourage sharing of knowledge and information to increase global intelligence. Initiatives like Google helping 50 million women in India go digital in a year aim to boost internet users, including more female users, to grow online services and introduce more people to connectivity. Zuckerberg argues that connectivity is a basic human right as it helps keep everyone informed of important worldwide events and their local surroundings.
For years, we've been telling designers: the web is not print. You can't have pixel-perfect layouts. You can't determine how your site will look in every browser, on every platform, on every device. We taught designers to cede control, think in systems, embrace web standards. So why are we still letting content authors plan for where their content will "live" on a web page? Why do we give in when they demand a WYSIWYG text editor that works "just like Microsoft Word"? Worst of all, why do we waste time and money creating and recreating content instead of planning for content reuse? What worked for the desktop web simply won't work for mobile. As our design and development processes evolve, our content workflow has to keep up. Karen will talk about how we have to adapt to creating more flexible content.
This document discusses the future of connectivity through various digital devices and platforms. It explores how mobile phones, smartphones, tablets, smartwatches and the Internet of Things are changing how people interact and depend on technology. While innovation in connectivity provides benefits, it also raises issues around overdependence, distraction, and privacy concerns as more daily tasks become integrated with networked devices. The document questions where to draw the line between technology helping versus controlling people's lives.

The document discusses how networked and hyperconnected technologies are changing how people, especially younger generations, live and work. It notes that teens and young adults have brains wired differently than older people due to extensive multitasking. While some argue this could negatively impact cognition, others believe it is yielding positive results by allowing people to learn more and access collective knowledge online. The document also examines how the digital, mobile and social media revolutions have impacted knowledge workers by increasing transparency, real-time information sharing, and influence of networks and new online experts.

In this lesson, we explain how the methods of use and the production of content has completely changed over the last few years.
People as passive spectators have become producers of content: everyone has access to a camera and software for the in-house development of multimedia content.The explosion of platforms such as YouTube, Flickr and Instagram, etc. ... has enabled everyone to become a content maker.
The contents of the web are often remixed or characterized by fads that follow an unstoppable collective stream. This stream produces new content out of old, which inevitably impacts on the life of the brands.
IE Application 2015. Social Interaction within 10 yearsFrankXUL
Technology has greatly impacted social interaction over the past 15 years through the rise of social media platforms and communication apps. It is predicted that over the next 10 years, technology will further blend the physical and digital worlds through augmented reality devices. This will allow for new forms of virtual social interaction and collaboration that can decrease geographical distances. However, over-reliance on technology also risks reduced in-person social skills and increased isolation unless a balance is maintained between online and offline socialization.
This document discusses tools and techniques for modern journalism. It begins by stating that journalism has never been more exciting due to new possibilities for finding, telling, and sharing stories. It then provides examples of tools that can help with different aspects of storytelling like brainstorming, research, mapping investigations, monitoring topics, recording interviews, making maps and timelines, and creating visualizations and infographics. The document emphasizes that storytelling tools should attract attention, create interest, add value and engage readers. It also stresses the importance of focusing on a curated selection of tools that can handle 80% of the work, while experimenting with new tools for the other 20%.
This document discusses how smart devices and apps share users' personal information without their full awareness or consent. It notes that 90% of cell phone users have their phone with them frequently and over 30% never turn it off. When apps request location access, 73% of the time the app shares this information with advertising networks. Pre-installed apps and those that request microphone access share even more data. The document warns that as wearable devices become more common, transmitting health and activity information to linked phones, the risks of data interception increase without new security policies. It cautions that as smart technology expands into homes, privacy breaches may also grow.
Lee Rainie, Director of the Pew Research Center’s Internet & American Life Project, will discuss the Project’s latest research into internet trends, mobile connectivity, and use of social media and what they mean for marketers. He will also look ahead at some of the big questions about the next stages of technology.

Our addiction to being constantly connected through our digital devices has significant psychological and physiological effects. Nearly all adults and teens now own cellphones, with over half of adults and a third of teens owning smartphones. Constant smartphone use can disrupt sleep, cause anxiety when separated from the device, and lead to issues like "nomophobia" - the fear of being without one's mobile phone. Long-term overuse of social media like Facebook may increase feelings of envy and decrease satisfaction and well-being. As wearable devices become more advanced and ubiquitous, monitoring our health and connecting us ambiently, our dependency on technology for social interaction and information may also increase. However, being mindful of screen time and indulging less can help address
1. Over a billion people own smartphones globally, led by Samsung surpassing Apple. Mobile access of services like Facebook has grown 8x in 2 years.
2. Instagram, acquired by Facebook for $1 billion, capitalizes on the prevalence of smartphone cameras by enabling photo sharing. This strengthened Facebook's dominance in personal photo sharing.
3. Tablets are becoming more popular than PCs, with 85% of US newspapers/magazines having iPad apps. Consumers prefer tablets for richer experiences than PCs or smartphones. Brands must consider how consumers use tablets.
This document discusses both the benefits and drawbacks of mobile apps and smartphone usage. It notes that while smartphones provide convenience and connectivity, they can also be distracting and even addictive. Heavy smartphone use is linked to decreased attention spans and increased stress. The document also explores how smartphone usage varies between generations, with both youth and elderly adopting smartphones but sometimes facing difficulties. Overall, it examines the complex relationship people have with their mobile devices.

This document presents information about social networks. It defines social networks and discusses their key features, types including generic, professional, and thematic networks. The document also outlines advantages such as connecting with others and finding people with shared interests, as well as disadvantages like loss of privacy and potential addiction. Popular social networking activities are also mentioned. In conclusions, the document discusses what was learned about social networks and their importance in other countries.
The document discusses how social networks can be made more interoperable by adopting common standards like microformats to publish user profile and friend network information. This would allow profile and friend data to be portable between sites and avoid siloed data. Specific microformats like hCard and XFN are presented as ways to mark up user profiles, links to other profile pages, and friends lists so they can be reused across sites to connect the social web in the way the original web connected via hyperlinks. Examples are given for how to implement hCards and XFN in profiles, profile equivalency links, and friends lists.

The Future of Social Networks on the Internet: The Need for SemanticsJohn Breslin
The document discusses the future of social networks on the internet and the need for semantics. It notes that current social media sites operate as isolated data silos and proposes connecting these islands by allowing users to easily move between sites and bring their data. The document outlines issues with existing social networking services and proposes leveraging semantics through standards like FOAF and SIOC to enable interoperability across sites.
The document discusses the evolution of the internet from its origins to modern usage. It traces the early development of internet technology in the 1950s and the creation of ARPANET. By the late 1980s, Tim Berners-Lee invented the World Wide Web while working at CERN, allowing for easy sharing of information. Global internet usage has since exploded, reaching over 4 billion users by 2019 with increasing speeds and new applications like social media and online shopping. The future of technology may include advances in areas like blockchain, artificial intelligence, and augmented/virtual reality.
Lisa Harris presented on the history of technological change and current trends in social media and big data. Chris Phethean discussed how businesses can evaluate social media to learn from it. Ian Brown explored what businesses can learn from analyzing big data. Lisa Harris then closed with an exercise reflecting on how participation in the module increased understanding of opportunities and challenges of social media for business.
This document discusses how technology and internet access has changed consumer behavior and daily life. Some key points:
- Over 50% of the world now has internet access, with Asia making up nearly half of all users. Mobile devices are increasingly how people access the internet.
- People use their devices and the internet for many daily activities like searching for information, communicating, shopping, entertainment and more. Popular search categories include "I want to do" and "I want to know" moments.
- Both positive and negative impacts of technology are discussed, such as increased connectivity but also potential for isolation, addiction, and cybercrime. Overall, technology has become deeply integrated into most consumers' lives.
The document discusses predictions for media technology advances by 2022. It focuses on computing technology, video games, and cell phones. The author predicts that by 2022, tablets and cloud computing will replace traditional computers. Gaming will be done primarily online through internet access rather than consoles. Cell phones will have increased storage and functionality, contributing to the decline of standalone computers. Various communication and diffusion of innovations theories are referenced to support these predictions.
eZ Unconference#2 - Future of the internet 2020 - C. Zahneissen (cpo)eZ Publish Community
This document discusses predictions for the future of the internet and web in 2020 and beyond. It notes that the digital universe will be 44 times larger than a decade prior, with 50 billion devices connected to the internet and 6 billion mobile users. The digital and physical worlds will continue merging through technologies like augmented reality glasses and implanted devices. User experience will be key, with experiences expected to flow across contexts and devices. The future web will be accessible anywhere, anytime, and on any device through multi-channel and user experience platforms.
This document summarizes trends in technology, social media, and leadership for an executive audience. It discusses emerging technologies like touchscreens, mobile payments, and augmented reality. It also covers growth in social media platforms and trends in cloud computing, mobility, and big data. Leadership in the digital age is shaped by access to mobile/social technologies and the shift to public/cloud-based information and services.
New media platforms like social networks, mobile apps, and digital outlets are changing how people consume information and advertising. As people spend more time on their mobile devices, brands are developing new ways to reach consumers through these channels. Tesco's Homeplus case study shows how creating a mobile app allowed customers to purchase items on subway displays using QR codes, leading to increased online sales and membership. As the average smartphone user spends over 10 hours per month using apps, the mobile app market is growing exponentially and becoming a crucial new advertising platform. These shifts demonstrate how new media are transforming advertising from traditional one-way broadcast messaging to personalized interactions between brands and connected consumers.
We can note the great growth of technology and its advantages in people's lives. Communication became much easier, the transmission of news and information to a few touches on the screen. Today, we spend more time connected to the world wide web than on television. E-commerce is another beneficial point brought with the technological flood, the convenience of buying online, receiving the product without even needing to leave the house is a very positive point. You can be entertained on the internet easily by browsing social networks, watching videos, talking to friends, in fact, a multitude of things.
What does the fragmentation of the internet mean for design and usability?Rich Miller
The panel discussion focused on how the fragmentation of the internet into proprietary platforms and devices is affecting design, usability, and user experience. Specifically, the panelists discussed:
- Whether browser-based or proprietary/device-based models lead to better design and how this affects product strategy.
- The tradeoffs between proprietary apps and mobile web sites, and what can be learned from the iPad user experience.
- How social computing is impacting user productivity and behavior, and when users may experience "social computing hangover".

Millennials now make up over 35% of the global workforce and prefer mobile devices and more interactive learning. As they will form 50% of the workforce by 2020, organizations need to incorporate mobile learning to engage millennial employees. Mobile learning is not yet widely used in Australian businesses, but 63% plan to implement it in the future. This has implications for online learning, including responsive design, flexible delivery across devices, and content optimized for mobile.
We tend to imagine internet as a place of communication between people: humans post, comment, share, poke themselves. But in 1999 Kevin Ashton indicated new trend: Internet of Things (IoT).

2. There are 2 important questions to start with
What will provoke changes in the social
networks?
New technological discoveries or
people’s creativity?
3. And the answer is...
Both factors alternate depending on the situation we are
in
In the very beginning of the research, IT
experts showed confidence that now is the
time for the human creativity to blossom and
find amazing applications of the already
existing technologies
4. Which technologies and trends can be used as tools
of the human creativity and in what direction will people`s ideas develop?
During the research we detected 6 important technologies
that will be crucial for the social networks evolvement in
the next 3 to 5 years. The majority of them are in an
advanced stage of their development and can be put into
practice without serious professional IT knowledge.

6. Image Recognition
• Image recognition is in a stage of development
that allows it to be already put into practice.
Imagine that a group of friends takes a photo in
front of the Westminster Abby in London. The
social network they upload the photo to will
automatically recognize and tag the friends and
will also recognize the Westminster Abby and
add its location on the picture.
7. Geolocation
• Geolocation is quite developed as a
technology, it just needs to be
refined when putting it into practice
in applications and web software
that is aiming at everyday users.
Imagine that you are taking a walk in
the centre of your city and you receive a notification on your smart phone
that a couple of your friends are in a restaurant 20 meters away. If you join
them you receive 10 % discount of the menu.
8. Internet of things
•Still in development and needs to be
further improved. Internet of things will
further convert the web into a mist that
surrounds us completely.
We can put the turkey inside the cooker
and the oven will know when to increase the temperature and when to lower
it. We won`t have to do this manually because the oven will be connected to
internet, it can check the recipe and download the software for cooking the
food.
9. What changes will the users bring to the web
and social networks?
How will we behave in the future social
networks?
How future social networks will change
business?
Do you want to see the check list of the most
probable changes that will occur in the web
and the online networks in the next 3- 5 years?
