Building a social network website from scratchElinext
In 2020, there were 3.6 billion social media users worldwide. Half of the world's population was active on social media before the pandemic. In the last two years, our online presence has only strengthened. Social websites are an essential part of our daily life. TikTok, Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube crashes frighten people more than ever. So, creating a new social site could be a profitable project. But where to start? Learn in our new guide.
What is a Connected Business? Its a business where all parts of the value chain can interact digitally.
This presentation talks about how to create a Connected Business, how APIs, Cloud and Mobile can create and enhance new business models.
Covered in the session is:
* The importance of APIs to your organization
* How Cloud development can be transformative
* How to integrate Mobile and IoT to create a Connected Business
* How companies have connected their ecosystems
The current implementation of TLS involves your browser displaying a padlock, and a green bar, after
successfully verifying the digital signature on the TLS certificate. Proposed is a solution where your
browser's response to successful verification of a TLS certificate is to display a login window. That login
window displays the identity credentials from the TLS certificate, to allow the user to authenticate Bob. It
also displays a 'user-browser' shared secret i.e. a specific picture from your hard disk. This is not SiteKey,
the image is shared between the computer user and their browser. It is never transmitted over the internet.
Since sandboxed websites cannot access your hard disk this image cannot be counterfeited by phishing
websites. Basically if you view the installed software component of your browser as an actor in the
cryptography protocol, then the solution to phishing attacks is classic cryptography, as documented in any
cryptography textbook.
This presentation was created for the clients whom I dealt with. I tried to help them in a way so that they can see the potential hidden under the soft skin of websites as it is no longer just a public face online. There could be thousands of such topics available at the net, but being a player of this field I indulge myself to publish it. I gathered all those pieces of helpful information I came across over a period of time, throughout my journey of eleven years and created it. Hopefully it would be liked by the audiences I am associated with.
In this workshop for the Institute of Management Consultants, Northern California chapter, Chapter President Brett LaDove provides an overview to the key elements driving change on the internet, and explains the essence behind Web 2.0 and how it can be used effectively in business.

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.

3. But remember, Google Analytics is illegal(*) Multiple federal and state government officials charged with guarding over national data protection are convinced that Google Analytics is against the law in Germany and are mulling imposing fines on companies who use the service to gather detailed stats based on their website visitors’ usage patterns without the explicit consent of those visitors. http://eu.techcrunch.com/2009/11/24/google-analytics-illegal-germany/ (*) in Germany
4. IKEA Facebook campaign IKEA created a Facebook profile for the Malmo store manager, Gordon Gustavsson. Over a two-week period, he uploaded images from of IKEA showrooms to his Facebook photo album. Then it put out word that the first person to tag their name to a product in the pictures, won it.
5. Browser Identity Identity will be one of the defining themes in the next five years of the Web. Nearly every site has a concept of a user account, registration, and identity. We are seeing market-moving effects of the identity/log in problem. Facebook Connect and Google’s Friend Connect both let you use your pre-existing identity and social graph to super-power other websites. The problem? Your identity is too important to be owned by any one company.Your friends are too important to be owned by any one company. A Solution The browser is your personal and trusted agent to the web. It’s the only actor on the Internet stage which both knows everything you do on the web, and never has to let that data leave the privacy of your desktop. Your browser knows you (or, at least, should). http://www.azarask.in/blog/post/identity-in-the-browser-firefox/
6. The Content Pyramid Being at the top of the content pyramid is the best place of all. You’re the domain expert. People can’t talk about the subject without touching on your work. But, the aggregators might be where the traffic and exposure really is to push down into the volume sectors.You need to look for a longer term strategy. You need to have opinions and develop a writing style that engages an audience. You need to spread the word so far and wide that people will learn about ideas from you, even if it all proves is that you subscribe to the blog of someone much smarter. From that comes traffic… and links from lower down the chain… and ultimately authority: the holy grail. http://www.davidnaylor.co.uk/the-content-pyramid.html
7. The Evolution of Storage http://www.geekologie.com/image.php?path=/2009/11/29/storage-full.jpg
9. Tool: Pingdom http://tools.pingdom.com/fpt/ The Full Page Test loads a complete HTML page including all objects. It mimics the way a page is loaded in a web browser. The load time of all objects is shown visually with time bars. You can view the list of objects either in load order or as a hierarchy. Every test also shows general statistics about the loaded page such as the total number of objects, total load time, and size including all objects.
