This document discusses activist mapping and the Ushahidi project. It provides background on Ushahidi, which was created to map reports of violence during the 2007 Kenyan elections. The document outlines Ushahidi's goals, how it was built using mobile phones and the web, its launch timeline, and lessons learned. It also shares examples of other activist mapping projects and discusses how mapping can be used for documenting human rights violations or activism more broadly.
This document summarizes how crowdsourcing was used to collect crisis information during violence in Kenya. It describes how citizens could report incidents via SMS or the web to create a map and timeline of events. Data was also gathered from news, NGOs, and governments through various APIs and feeds. The goals were to create ways for Kenyans to report violence using mobile phones and build an archive of related news and reports. The system combined FrontlineSMS with Ushahidi to receive and map SMS reports. It is presented as a model that could work anywhere to help others facing crises.
Crowdsourcing crisis information in Kenya using mobile phones. The goals were to allow Kenyans to report violence via mobile phones, create an archive of these reports, and map where most violence occurred. Users reported on protests, police firing on crowds, injuries and deaths. The platform grew over time and was used to map crisis situations in other countries based on reports from citizens.
Ushahidi was created in response to violence following the 2007 Kenyan elections to map reports of violence. It was developed quickly by a small team with various backgrounds but no humanitarian experience. They launched early with minimal features and grew the platform through an open source community model, releasing updates rapidly based on what users needed. While successful, it required difficult decisions around priorities and faced challenges when the organization struggled with its role as both a software developer and humanitarian response group.

Social media has transformed journalism by allowing for new forms of interactivity, distributed reporting, and engagement between journalists and audiences. Journalism is now a networked process where news events are negotiated in cyber-newsrooms that bring together reporters, sources, and local/national audiences. Citizen contributors and pro-am journalists now play a role in influencing the narrative, content, and impact of news stories. However, accuracy must still be a priority, and journalists must work to corroborate information and verify facts from social media.

National Geographic - Omniture Cafe 6/11/09Ted McDonald
The document discusses analyzing social media traffic and visitor behavior on the National Geographic website using their web analytics tool, Omniture SiteCatalyst. It describes how they categorized social media referrers into meaningful groups like social news sites, social networking, social media sharing, and social bookmarking. Analysis of the data showed that while social media drives a lot of traffic, visitors from these sites tend to be less engaged than average visitors and account for a small portion of total page views and conversions. However, content that gets shared on social media can have a multiplier effect by reaching new audiences.

Additionally, we will examine the capacity of AI to enrich plain text with appropriate XML markup. Practical examples and methodological guidelines will be provided to elucidate how AI can be effectively prompted to interpret and generate accurate XML markup.
Further emphasis will be placed on the role of AI in developing XSLT, or schemas such as XSD and Schematron. We will address the techniques and strategies adopted to create prompts for generating code, explaining code, or refactoring the code, and the results achieved.
The discussion will extend to how AI can be used to transform XML content. In particular, the focus will be on the use of AI XPath extension functions in XSLT, Schematron, Schematron Quick Fixes, or for XML content refactoring.
The presentation aims to deliver a comprehensive overview of AI usage in XML development, providing attendees with the necessary knowledge to make informed decisions. Whether you’re at the early stages of adopting AI or considering integrating it in advanced XML development, this presentation will cover all levels of expertise.
By highlighting the potential advantages and challenges of integrating AI with XML development tools and languages, the presentation seeks to inspire thoughtful conversation around the future of XML development. We’ll not only delve into the technical aspects of AI-powered XML development but also discuss practical implications and possible future directions.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdfPaige Cruz
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.
5. In January of 2008 there was a disputed election in
Kenya. The incumbent claimed a win and, due to
gross irregularities, the opposition refused to accept
the results.
What started out as a political fracas quickly devolved
down ethnic lines. Government forces and civilians
battled it out in the urban slums and rural Kenya.
A media blackout was created and only non-
traditional media was in operation...
and cell phones.
7. Our Goals
• Create a way for everyday Kenyans to report
incidents of violence that they saw
• Create an archive of news and reports around
those same events
• Show where the majority of the violence was
happening
