From an informed academic stand point, I consider the consequences of the influence of social media for connections and the totality of the consumer sphere for making purchasing decisions etc. In short, how we live, why we seek to make purchases and the ways in which we do it.
Our social lives lend themselves to efficient collection of information, shares and broadcast irrelevances. A modernity driven by a real time marinade of electronic information.
I suggest that we live in anticipation of the arrival of information. Work and social divergences have become accelerated, which has created nostalgia for previous unhurried social situations... In short a new social sensibility.

Social media? It’s serious! Understanding the dark side of social mediaIan McCarthy
Research and practice have mostly focused on the “bright side” of social media, aiming to understand and help in leveraging the manifold opportunities afforded by this technology. However, it is increasingly observable that social media present enormous risks for individuals, communities, firms, and even the whole of society. Examples for this “dark side” of social media include cyberbullying, addictive use, trolling, online witch hunts, fake news, and privacy abuse. In this article, we aim to illustrate the multidimensionality of the dark side of social media and describe the related various undesirable outcomes. To do this, we adapt the established social media honeycomb framework to explain the dark side implications of each of the seven functional building blocks: conversations, sharing, presence, relationships, reputation, groups, and identity. On the basis of these reflections, we present a number of avenues for future research, so as to facilitate a better understanding and use of social media.

Designing Web Interfaces Book - O'Reilly WebcastBill Scott
This is an update to the previous Designing Web Interfaces talk. This presentation was given on Feb. 3, 2009 over a live webcast via an O'Reilly Author Webcast special.
This presentation goes hand in hand with our book (Bill Scott & Theresa Neil) called Designing Web Interfaces: Principles and Patterns for Rich Interaction.
This presentation is much better suited for Slideshare than previous presentations as I took a lot of time to turn the movie screencasts into individual keyframes. All interactions now show in this presentation (that is why there are 300+ slides; in reality the presentation was more like 50 slides.)

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).

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.
Connector Corner: Automate dynamic content and events by pushing a buttonDianaGray10

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

Encryption in Microsoft 365 - ExpertsLive Netherlands 2024Albert Hoitingh
In this session I delve into the encryption technology used in Microsoft 365 and Microsoft Purview. Including the concepts of Customer Key and Double Key Encryption.
2. The basic truth
Society is influenced by our communicaEon tradiEons which
is also closely related to our technology capabiliEes.
These two concepEons conEnue to live on, not only because
of commercial interest, but also because of individual
desire to stay ‘in touch’. And now to be always
connected. Increasingly, this is also in response to a fear
of the unknown manifest as the risk of missing out.
My research reveals the significance of the social. The how
and why social acEon/s enhance new ways of being in
touch, and of consumerism as we seek to create, publish
and disseminate informaEon.
From an informed academic stand point, I consider the
consequences of the influence of social media for
connecEons and the totality of the consumer sphere for
making purchasing decisions etc.
3. Produc've Consumers
Create data,
i. to purposely share with others
ii. unintenEonally as informaEon ‘data’
trails which are leU across the web
Are self‐reflecEve
Led by co‐produced knowledge
Want to make the right choice/s
Look for consumer influence
Trust is cri'cal
4. Social decision making
The producEve consumer is more informed, more in touch, more engaged and willing to
parEcipate, record, search for and store content than ever before. In the face of new waves
of publishing, markeEng and adverEsing there are already emerging, with new distribuEon
and consumpEon pa9erns from the sharing of informaEon on Facebook, to uploading
experiences to Youtube, to Twi9ering about a successful purchase etc.
Already Facebook is replacing email for a whole generaEon.
With Christmas (fast) approaching, online retailers such as Amazon.com have already prepared
for what has become known as ‘cyber Monday’ ‐ the busiest internet shopping day of the
year that typically falls on the first Monday of December. Last year, Amazon claims that 1.4m
items were ordered from its UK site, over 16‐items per second and the most it has ever
received in a single 24‐hour period.
This year, Amazon is forecasEng that sales will be 21% to 36% higher (Teather, 2009).
5. What next? The Digital & Beyond…
In terms of what the future holds, this is based on how quickly
individuals make decisions and how they are combining social
aspects of everyday life by way of increasingly mobile consumer
acEons.
Now, there are new waves of opportuniEes and growth in the cycle
of producEon. And today this means that the individual is in a
constant cycle of creaEon, publicaEon and distribuEon.
We leave behind the Web 1.0 staEc and top down relaEonship
between the individual and informaEon. Content has been
turned‐on‐its head. The user is ‘in charge’ of ‘where’ they go,
‘what’ they purchase and (at Emes) whether they pay.
We can predict there will be new consumpEve pa9erns. These will
have global impact on society where streams of data and
informaEon are shared between individuals; can be monitored
and held by companies; and will be measured over Eme by
policy makers.
UlEmately we will all have to respond to a more bo9om‐up,
‘wisdom of crowds’ le and always on social order.
6. Key Discussion Points
How does producEve content contribute to the digital economy and influence consumer
behaviour?
How closely do individual experiences influence? In other words, is such informaEon
seen as ‘unreliable’ or ‘marginal’ content created by ‘amateurs’? OR are such streams
closer to other forms of content etc. that has been tradiEonally only created by those
with claims to be ‘experts’ ‐ e.g. rise of CiEzen Journalism etc. ?
Does such social behaviour consEtute new forms of ‘community’ dialogue? How can this
be captured and marketed by business?
In what ways do companies perceive producEve content? To fear? To embrace?
What could be the new business model of companies, publishing services, digital media
etc. that produce content? What pressures drive revenue for adverEsing or ‘push
markeEng’? How will this influence distribuEon?
Who owns/is responsible for content? (e.g. criEcal comments or uploaded content is
protected under USA legal parameters (e.g. SecEon 230 of the CommunicaEons Decency
Act), but not by others in Europe, e.g. France)
How should producEve content be used by markeEng or public relaEons divisions?
What should be the relaEonship between producEve content and other sources from
tradiEonal media?
