social media
Social media allows users to generate and share content through various platforms like Facebook, blogs, podcasts, and wikis. These platforms give users the opportunity to share their views on topics of interest and personal journals with others online. Podcasts involve making audio files available for others through RSS feeds, while wikis allow users to create and edit web pages and share information. Overall, social media empowers users to become creators and directors of online content rather than just viewers and listeners.
Blogs & News- Final- SHackett
Blogs have become an important source of news and information. They allow for behind-the-scenes perspectives and immediate reporting from anywhere via mobile devices.

Turn Fear Into Passion
This document provides tips for presenting information to turn fear into passion. It suggests three rules for presentations: focus on why the topic matters, keep presentations short with three main points, and include examples the audience can relate to.

The overall message is to make information compelling and easily digestible in order to inspire passion in the audience.
Virtual embedding
Virtual embedding of library resources and services has evolved from physical embedding within institutions to virtual embedding within online environments used by patrons. A review found libraries have embedded resources like reading lists and link resolvers within course management systems and department websites. Services like reference and interlibrary loan have been provided via email, phone and chat. Moving forward, the review suggests embedding more library services directly within electronic medical records, mobile apps, internal networks and databases through tools like buttons and search filters to reach patrons virtually. The future may include librarians embedded using communication tools like Twitter, Facebook and instant messaging to help patrons within their own online spaces.

Twitter is a wonderful tool to discover. The beauty is in the information that you can find and the wide array of Twitter applications that help you find conversations and friends.
Twitter For Beginners
Twitter is a microblogging platform launched in 2006 that allows users to post and interact using "tweets", which are text posts limited to 140 characters. The first tweet was sent by Twitter founder Jack Dorsey on March 21, 2006. By 2010, Twitter had over 75 million users generating over 50 million tweets per day.
Twitter and postmodernism
Twitter exhibits postmodern characteristics such as a fragmented structure without a linear narrative, as posts can be made in any order. It challenges traditional meta-narratives by creating a celebrity-obsessed culture where people spend more time online than participating in traditional institutions. Twitter plays with concepts of time and space by allowing near-instant communication across geographic boundaries. However, many tweets consist of pointless babble rather than substantive conversations. Twitter gives ordinary users a way to feel connected to celebrities and become producers of content themselves.

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).

Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software Fuzzing
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.
