Invite people via Google Calendar, Join video call, Mute Mic, Mute Camera, Chat, Screenshare. PLANNING Meeting Room: Try to get a room equipped with a projector, speakers and table top microphone. Otherwise you will have to bring your own. You will probably want to bring your own laptop. Get assurance that the room has a fast internet connection, If it gets slow during the meeting ask other attendees to disconnect their laptops, tablets and smart phones from the wifi provided for that room.

Have access to speaker phone or cell phone for a back up teleconference (in the event any of the remote attendees has problems getting into the Hangout). Invite guests using Google Calendar.

    Digital Content Next January 2018 / DCN Distributed Content Revenue Benchmark Google Data Collection —NEW— August 2018 digitalcontentnext.org CONFIDENTIAL - DCN Participating Members Only 1 This research was conducted by Professor Douglas C. Schmidt, Professor of Computer Science at Vanderbilt University, and his team. DCN is grateful to support Professor Schmidt in distributing it. We offer it to the public with the permission of Professor Schmidt. Google Data Collection Professor Douglas C. Schmidt, Vanderbilt University August 15, 2018 I. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 1. Google is the world’s largest digital advertising company.1 It also provides the #1 web browser,2 the #1 mobile platform,3 and the #1 search engine4 worldwide. Google’s video platform, email service, and map application have over 1 billion monthly active users each.5 Google utilizes the tremendous reach of its products to collect detailed information about people’s online and real-world behaviors, which it then uses to target them with paid advertising. Google’s revenues increase significantly as the targeting technology and data are refined. 2. Google collects user data in a variety of ways. The most obvious are “active,” with the user directly and consciously communicating information to Google, as for example by signing in to any of its widely used applications such as YouTube, Gmail, Search etc. Less obvious ways for Google to collect data are “passive” means, whereby an application is instrumented to gather information while it’s running, possibly without the user’s knowledge. Google’s passive data gathering methods arise from platforms (e.g. Android and Chrome), applications (e.g.

  • Report on Android Device Customization US Consumer Study of 3000 Android Users November 2016
    Report on Android Device Customization US Consumer Study of 3000 Android Users November 2016 Android users are able to choose from over 2.2 million apps in the Google Play store.1 There are countless ways that consumers can customize their devices and use the apps they want. Mobile apps are created by developers to serve the needs of consumers; like any other product, they identify a problem and come up with a solution, then compete with other solutions on the market. Given the breadth of options and opportunities for consumers to download apps for and customize their Android devices, how are these consumers engaging with and organizing their apps? In order to more closely investigate this question, the Application Developers Alliance surveyed 3,000 U.S. Android users. Respondents were asked which apps they use to meet certain needs, how they organize their apps on their device, and their thoughts on apps that come pre-loaded on the device. We found that apps, even category leaders, tend not to be exclusively used; that almost all Android users customize their device and their home screen, often in significant ways; and that most Android users prefer their device come “ready-to-go” with some apps preloaded but still do download many new apps on their devices. As a result, there is a significant amount of competition in the mobile app industry: for downloads, for users, and for placement on their home screen, regardless of the presence of pre-loaded apps. Android Users Download a Lot of Apps Android users can vary significantly, making customization important.
