  • Users of Jongla Will Get 50MB of Free Daily Data. This Is a Move to Target Indonesia’S Generation of Mobile-First Users, the Chat App’S CEO Tell E27
    Users of Jongla will get 50MB of free daily data. This is a move to target Indonesia’s generation of mobile-first users, the chat app’s CEO tell e27 Jongla, a Finnish cross-platform messaging app, yesterday announced a new partnership with Indonesian telecom provider XL Axiata to provide users of its chat platform with 50MB of free daily data. The deal is part of a joint aim of both parties to get Indonesians online. This will help Jongla — available on iOS, Android, Windows Phone and Firefox mobile OS — extend its user base, while XL Axiata will take care of the marketing push in the Southeast Asian country. “Indonesia is one of the fastest growing mobile markets in the world with a population of almost 260 million people and about 25 per cent smartphone penetration rate. According to study by OnDevice, Indonesians have currently two to four instant messaging apps installed on average. This is clear evidence that they have not yet made up their mind when it comes to a preferred IM (instant messaging) solution,” Riku Salminen, CEO, Jongla, told e27. Jakarta XL axis capital group Axiata telecom review PT Indonesia Just last week, the Helsinki-based startup raised €3.4 million (US$4.25 million) in Series B investment from a group of private investors that included JSH Capital Oy, Ingman Finance Oy, Kontino Invest Oy and Holdington Ltd Oy — bringing its total raised capital to €7.3 million (US$9.1 million). “We in Jongla believe that we have seen just a tip of iceberg and the whole potential of Indonesian market is still untapped.

The last six months have exposed and magnified long standing inequities -- in our communities, in our hospitals, in our workplaces, and in schools. Too many of our school districts lack a fair share of resources to address the pandemic’s challenges; not every student can be taught remotely with attention to their need for social and emotional safe learning spaces. The current circumstances are poised to exacerbate existing disparities in academic opportunity and performance, particularly between white communities and communities of color.

    MOBILE SMART FUNDAMENTALS MMA MEMBERS EDITION OCTOBER 2012 messaging . advertising . apps . mcommerce www.mmaglobal.com NEW YORK • LONDON • SINGAPORE • SÃO PAULO MOBILE MARKETING ASSOCIATION OCTOBER 2012 REPORT The 2012 Mobile Election In 2008, when Obama was first elected as President, smartphones were just gaining popularity and tablets were R&D blueprints somewhere in Silicon Valley. Fast-forward to 2012, President Obama tweets on average 29 times a day and both parties have mobile apps explaining their policies. The election is a perfect indicator of the power of mobile and how it transformed the campaign process. As reported in VatorNews, one in ten Americans “dual-screened” the presidential debates on their TVs and on their mobile devices. Additionally, 35% of smartphones owners used their mobile device to fact check what was being said during the debates. Fundraising also received a technological face-lift. Obama initiated a mobile messaging campaign to encourage donations via SMS. And both Obama and Romney used Square at fundraising events for people to donate with their credit cards. By the 2016 elections, who knows what type of advancements we will make with mobile. According to a survey conducted by Mojiva, 85% of respondents would consider using their mobile device to vote on Election Day. Imagine mobile voting in a cab or on the treadmill or while you wait for coffee in Starbucks. The impact of mobile on the elections is not only apparent but should serve as inspiration for marketers aiming to move closer to consumers. With mobile, both Obama and Romney made a connection with constituents that was rich, dynamic and contextually relevant.

  • Static Analysis of Firefox OS Privileged Applications to Detect Permission Policy Violations
    I J C T A, 9(7), 2016, pp. 3085-3093 ISSN: 0974-5572 © International Science Press Static analysis of Firefox OS privileged applications to detect permission policy violations Shahanas P.* and Jevitha K.P.** ABSTRACT There is an emerging trend to use web browsers as mobile operating systems initiated by big market players such as Mozilla Firefox and Google Chrome. The applications for Firefox OS are basically web applications developed using HTML, CSS, JavaScript and other technologies. Firefox OS uses a Linux kernel and boots into Gecko runtime engine. It provides security features like sandboxed execution for applications, Content Security Policy and permission management system. In this paper, we present a study on the permission management system in Firefox OS through static analysis of its applications. The results of the study on 16 privileged applications downloaded from Firefox OS marketplace shows that about 7% of the permissions accessed by these applications are unauthorised. 13% of the permissions were requested but not used, 14% of the permissions were never requested but the equivalent WebAPI calls were being made in the application source code. Finally 66% of permissions were requested and used. The results reveal that many code reviewed privileged applications hosted on the Firefox marketplace do not conform to the Firefox OS permission policies and could cause potential threats to the system. Keywords: Firefox OS;Application security; manifest analysis; Permission system 1. INTRODUCTION Mozilla launched Firefox OS, an entirely web-based Linux mobile operating system in July 2013. The Firefox OS architectural stack has four layers namely Gaia, Gecko, Gonk and the Mobile device [1].

    MOBILE SMART FUNDAMENTALS MMA MEMBERS EDITION JANUARY 2014 messaging . advertising . apps . mcommerce www.mmaglobal.com NEW YORK • LONDON • SINGAPORE • SÃO PAULO MOBILE MARKETING ASSOCIATION JANUARY 2014 REPORT CMO as Chief Innovator As the MMA continues to help CMO’s build their team’s mobile marketing capabilities, we’ve been thinking about how this in turn contributes to a shift that has been happening in many quiet corners for some time. In 2013 however, CMO’s such as Walmart’s Stephen Quinn started to talk directly about the need for CMO’s to be the ones to make innovation happen within their own organizations. Given mobile’s power to transform marketing, the MMA will continue to make innovation a key focus of all our programs in 2014, not least of which, will be our Mobile CEO & CMO Summit, running July 13-15, 2014 at Hilton Head in South Carolina. Gathering the industries leaders each year at this event has become an essential part of our calendar. It not only serves as a unique opportunity for this busy group to be in the same place at the same time, but given the insights and experience of those in attendance, also allows us to truly focus the conversation on transformation. This, once again, will be front and center at this year’s meeting. It’s a unique opportunity to be in business today and be confronted with something that will and is already having, such a dramatic effect on the status quo. I look forward to supporting you, your business and all our members as we navigate these changes ahead.

  • The Delaforce Family History Research
    THE DELAFORCE FAMILY HISTORY RESEARCH by Patrick Delaforce & Ken Baldry THE DELAFORCE FAMILY HISTORY RESEARCH by Patrick Delaforce & Ken Baldry This is a book designed and produced to interest and encourage readers to delve back into the centuries in search of their ancestry. Interest in Family History research has grown considerably and is now widespread. A hundred regional Family History Societies cover the U.K. with a total membership of over 50,000 families. Another hundred societies are to be found in America, Australia, Canada and New Zealand, with over 1,000,000 families as members. The romantic story of the Delaforces over the last sixteen hundred years has been carefully researched. Step by step the reader is shown how the research was accomplished using dozens of different sources. Genealogy is the construction of a family tree, but Family History research puts flesh on the bare bones. Delaforces were diplomats and fishmongers, Kings’ men and silk weavers, Secret Agents and wine shippers, French Huguenots and pawnbrokers. In earlier years, they were kings and religious leaders. A very detailed chapter lists 500 cross-indexed Sources in the U.K. for the reader and would-be Family Historian. Other chapters bring to life the discovery of American, Australian and Canadian families with appropriate local sources of family history research for readers interested in locating possible relatives in those countries.Many pages of old prints, certificates, wills and photographs illustrate the by-gone centuries. The book jacket cover depicts the dramatic landing of the French Huguenot refugees on the English beaches in 1685.

  • Sparklabs Global Ventures' Technology and Internet Market Bi
    SparkLabs Global Ventures’ Technology and Internet Market Bi-Monthly Review November 14, 2014 Bi-monthly Highlights Global Trends • Online games expected to hit US$13B in 2014, with at least US$946M from League of Legends alone Mobile may be the hottest game market, but massively multiplayer online games on the PC are expected to grow from US$11 billion in 2014 to US$13 billion by 2017, according to market researcher SuperData Research. It wrote that MMO market has changed dramatically in revenue, player preferences, and the size of its potential audience. One of the clear winners from the changes is the free-to-play League of Legends, a multiplayer online battle arena game (MOBA). League of Legends has already generated $946 million so far in 2014, accounting for 11.9% of the overall market. But SuperData said it is worth noting that Wargaming’s World of Tanks, which is No. 5 on the rankings of MMOs with $369 million in revenue, monetizes much better on a smaller user base. The success of MOBA titles tells us the market is shifting to free-to-play, but the traditional subscription game World of Warcraft from Blizzard still generated $728 million this year from subscription revenues. Online games are 21% of the overall digital games market. By looking at the spending habits of 37 million digital gamers, SuperData’s latest data shows that incumbent titles like SmileGate’s Crossfire ($897M) and Nexon’s Dungeon Fighter ($891M) are holding on to their leadership positions, and Valve’s Dota 2, a MOBA with $136 million in revenues, is coming on strong.
