The document is a presentation on the topic of Web 2.0. It discusses key concepts of Web 2.0 including user-generated content, social media, decentralization, microcontent, and the importance of usability and search engine optimization (SEO). The presentation emphasizes that Web 2.0 is focused on people rather than websites, with an architecture of participation where people are creators and part of online communities.
Practices are shifting to give us ownership over our data and our information on the internet. At the center of the current buzz around the Open Web, data portability, and distributed social networking is the basic need to identify people on the internet.

Michael Tamblyn - 6 Projects That Could Change Publishing for the BetterBookNet Canada
Michael Tamblyn, CEO of BookNet Canada, describes 6 projects/changes/initiatives that could make things better for publishers, readers, and others with an interest in the future of the book.
User Interaction: it's the little things that are a website's best assets for gaining a positive and memorable user experience. This presentation will focus on trends and best practices in design and development conventions for user controls and how they affect the user experience—negatively or positively. Through the course of the session, we will discover various problems affecting smooth user interaction. Then I will identify ways to enhance controls and layouts in order to both speed up required user tasks and make them easier to use.

How you can stimulate interaction on your website.
België, de bermuda driehoek van e-commerceBart De Waele
Naar ondertussen jaarlijkse gewoonte geven we bij Wijs onze kijk op de online retail en e-commerce.
In 2012 brachten we alle cijfers en feiten samen voor België, en keken we vooral naar cross-border e-commerce.
In 2013 keken we naar de consument en zijn shift naar online; niet zozeer op het vlak van online kopen, maar wel digitaal oriënteren. Wat betekent het om online expertise en advies uit te spelen?
Dit jaar proberen we beide samen te brengen, en kijken we naar hoe België misschien wel de uitvalsbasis kan worden naar een vergeten consumentengroep…
Hoe kunnen steden en gemeenten best hun handelaars ondersteunen bij de veranderende (digitale) consument?

Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.

Connector Corner: Automate dynamic content and events by pushing a buttonDianaGray10
Here is something new! In our next Connector Corner webinar, we will demonstrate how you can use a single workflow to:
Create a campaign using Mailchimp with merge tags/fields
Send an interactive Slack channel message (using buttons)
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
Join us to learn more about this new, human-in-the-loop capability, brought to you by Integration Service connectors.

PHP Frameworks: I want to break free (IPC Berlin 2024)Ralf Eggert
In this presentation, we examine the challenges and limitations of relying too heavily on PHP frameworks in web development. We discuss the history of PHP and its frameworks to understand how this dependence has evolved. The focus will be on providing concrete tips and strategies to reduce reliance on these frameworks, based on real-world examples and practical considerations. The goal is to equip developers with the skills and knowledge to create more flexible and future-proof web applications. We'll explore the importance of maintaining autonomy in a rapidly changing tech landscape and how to make informed decisions in PHP development.
This talk is aimed at encouraging a more independent approach to using PHP frameworks, moving towards a more flexible and future-proof approach to PHP development.
"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.

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.
