It is particularly helpful when you need to break out of stale, established patterns of thinking, so that you can develop new ways of looking at things. This can be when you need to develop new opportunities, where you want to improve the service that you offer, or when existing approaches just aren't giving you the results you want.” - http://www.mindtools.com/brainstm.html -Have above site linked to FriendFeed room for reference. -Give employees a company-wide issue that needs to be resolved.

In the last few years we have witnessed a sustained rise in the popularity of online Social Network Sites (SNSs) such as Twitter, Facebook, Myspace, Flickr, LinkedIn, FriendFeed, Google Friend Con- nect, Yahoo! Groups, etc., which are some of the most visited websites worldwide. However, since they are are easy to use and the users are often not aware of the nature of the access of their profiles, they often reveal information which should be kept away from the public eyes. As a result, these social sites may originate security related threats for their members. This paper highlights the benefits of safe use of SNSs and emphasizes the most important threats to members of SNSs. Moreover, we will show the main factors behind these threats. Finally we present policy and technical recommendations in order to improve security without compromising the benefits of information sharing through SNSs. Keywords: Online Social Network, Privacy, Profile squatting, Identity threat, Image Tagging and Cross-profiling. 1 Introduction The advent of the Internet has given rise to many forms of online sociality, from the old e-mail and Usenet services to the more recent instant messaging (IM), blogging, and online social services. Among these, the technological phenomenon that has acquired the greatest popularity in this 21st century is the latter, the Social Networking Sites (SNSs).

  • Strategic Use of Online Social Networks for Librarian Current Awareness
    Keeping up: strategic use of online social networks for librarian current awareness Sue Cook, Information Specialist, CSIRO Information Management and Technology [email protected] Constance Wiebrands, Manager, Flexible Delivery and Lending Services, Curtin University Library [email protected] Abstract: Librarians were surveyed in August 2009 about their use of online social networks for professional information. This paper describes the features of online social networking tools that facilitate the flow of relevant current awareness information. Practical methods that can be used strategically within tools to ensure that information is professionally relevant are described, including methods of discovery and evaluation. Introduction As librarians distributing current awareness information, we know that there are various parameters that are included in the evaluation of a desirable current awareness tool. The tool should be able to deliver current, relevant information without a huge burden in time and effort for the client or adding to their information overload. We need to apply these same criteria in assessing our own current awareness needs. Librarian information sources – journals, conference papers, blogs - are either too slow to publication to be truly current or too numerous to effectively monitor. A scan of the Twibes Twitter directory in May 2009 found that 781 users who identified as librarians had registered on the directory. There were 249 members of the Library Society of the World Friendfeed group, 528 members of the ALIA Facebook group and over 500 other librarian groups. The members of these communities are not only sharing information about themselves but information about their work and professional lives.

Now that you have your professional marketing documents and LinkedIn Profile, it’s time to strengthen your online identity. This will help you a great deal in advancing your career!

  • Simplify Facebook and Twitter with the Abcs of Social Media
    Simplify Facebook and Twitter with the ABC’s of Social Media by Mari Smith – Social Media Consultant, Speaker & Trainer I created this five-part model - the ABC’s of Social Media - to simplify your social media efforts. Many folks come to social media and attempt to short-circuit the process by over-automating, over- broadcasting, over-delegating and miss out the vital component of connecting, engaging and building relationships. Once you’ve confirmed your target market uses Facebook and Twitter, and you’re happy with your brand, messaging and systems for capturing leads, etc., here’s how the ABC system works: Automate First, set up systems to automate your broadcasts, feeds, updates, content. On Twitter, this could be using Twitterfeed to automatically post your blog feed as tweets. To pre-schedule tweets, use TweetLater and/or Hootsuite. To update multiple social media sites, including Twitter, your Facebook personal profile, multiple Facebook Fan Pages, LinkedIn, FriendFeed and many more, Ping.fm works extremely well. To pre-schedule updates to multiple social sites, the best choice is HootSuite > Ping.fm. Import your blog post on Facebook using the Notes app and/or the Networked Blogs app. Aggregate all your social feeds into FriendFeed and add the FriendFeed app to your Facebook Profile. There are many more ways to automate; these are a great start. However, I do recommend not over-automating. Pre-scheduling and auto-broadcasting are great to ensure you at least have some content going out daily. But you’ll also want to generate real-time content/broadcasts too. Broadcast Broadcasts are what I call regular tweets (as opposed to @ replies), Facebook status updates, posts on Facebook, blog posts and more.

MICA, Ahmedabad, India M S Subhas, Karnatak University, India Ms Rashmi Tapariya, MICA, Ahmedabad, India Abstract This study focuses on understanding ‘likes’ on facebook. It is important to understand this phenomenon by studying how users would react to a post that is posted by a ‘friend’. Therefore, the objective of this paper is to understand what does it mean to ‘like’ a post on facebook? Is there a preference for a picture post in a status update than the written word? Are there distinctive types of ‘likes’ that can be useful to understand ‘likes’ on facebook? This is an exploratory study. Data was collected through Depth interviews and observing Facebook profiles. Twelve depth interviews were conducted and thirty nine facebook profiles’ data was observed from August 2013 to August 2014.
