  • In a study of link performance for short URLs generated by the service and posted on Facebook, Twitter and Tumblr, 1pm–4pm on weekdays emerged as the most fruitful time to post a link on Facebook, while for Twitter 1pm–3pm was best.
  • For both Facebook and Twitter, brands should avoid posting links after 8pm and before 8am, after 3pm on Fridays and on the weekends, or they run the risk of achieving low engagement on the post.
  • Facebook traffic begins to rise at 9am, peeks mid-week between 1pm and 3pm and fades from 4pm. Links posted from 1pm to 4pm result in the highest average click throughs, with absolute peak performance coming at 3pm on Wednesday.

  • Social learning has taken on a kind of religious fervor among learning practitioners during the past couple of years—and not without good reason. It often creates more powerful and enduring learning experiences; it helps people establish and leverage social connections to accelerate the distribution and sharing of experiences, content, and guidance; and it allows learners to be more productive, learn faster, and work smarter.
  • it’s easy to lose focus on what matters, and to assume the end game is the technology
  • A social learning strategy should paint a compelling picture of the future state, clearly articulate the business case for change, and outline the roadmap for how you will get from “here” to “there” (including what must change, stop, and continue)

  • Social learning, at its core, is a network of communities. This network is usually formed and accessed through the use of social media. The community network provides the “path” for an effective flow of information.
  • A community network is the primary source of advice, methods, leading practices, lessons learned, and innovation. It’s the “repository” of content, experience, and intelligence that enables people to learn, develop, and excel at work. The effectiveness and usefulness of the community network is a function of its size and make-up.
  • A new generation of learning is here. Today, employees are working in a very fast-paced environment and they need learning that is immediate, relevant, and delivered in the context of their work. Social media won’t do the job alone. Organizations must embrace social learning and adopt the leading practices presented in this article if they want their employees to keep their company on the cutting edge. Social learning works when it is born from a well thought-out strategy, is made up of mature community networks, is fueled by motivated members, is a resource of great content, and is guided by meaningful metrics. Take some of the ideas presented in this article and start implementing them now.

  • Apple’s iOS version of Safari still won’t support Flash, this is a change in how Flash content is delivered to iOS devices. Adobe’s Flash Media Server 4.5 will detect what type of device is attempting to view the content and will stream Flash videos in a format that is supported by iOS. As of right now only Flash videos are supported in Flash Media Server 4.5
  • There have been attempts in the past to convert Flash into HTML5 in hopes to bringing Flash to iOS, but none of those attempts have brought Flash to Safari

  • In recent weeks, Facebook has told us on two occasions about its teen-appeal problem. When it filed its annual report, it warned investors for the first time that younger users are turning to other services, particularly Instagram, as a substitute for Facebook.
  • "Teens recognized Instagram as a social network before anyone else," Solis said. "Everyone else treated it as a camera app."

This article from the "Handbook of Research on New Media Literacy at the K-12 level" provides clear definition and powerful application of tagging activities. This excellent article shows Web 2.0 technologies as cognitive tools.

They can build posts with many elements—photos, video, text, and more—and share them with colleagues. They also can find students with similar interests and build communities around specific educational goals. So.cl might even give students the ability to create their own social tool, customized for their own community.”

  • If you have ever entertained that seemingly laughable thought of installing anti-virus software on your mobile phone, you are not alone.
  • A few months ago, Kaspersky Labs discovered two Trojan-SMS malware that masqueraded as media player apps for Android devices. Once installed, the malware can send premium SMSes costing US$6 ($7.70) each without the user's knowledge.
  • the money is still on computers, and cyber criminals follow the trail of money. The increasing number of people using smartphones is a factor, but not a big one yet. There are some banking services on mobile platforms, but the majority of consumers still use computers to access banking services

  • According to Kaspersky, closed platforms (iPhone, BlackBerry and the old Symbian) are more secure while open platforms (Android, Windows Mobile 6 Series and the new Symbian) are less so. This, Kaspersky explains, is because the level of security is inversely proportionate to the ease with which developers can build apps on it.
  • "The more secure a system is, the harder it is for development - both for the good guys and the bad guys," he said.
  • security and ease of app development are two sides of the same coin that have to be finely balanced in order for a mobile platform to succeed.
  • iPhone users face exactly the same problems, but unfortunately, Apple has a very strict regulation on the apps industry, and the SDK it gives to software companies doesn't let us develop what we need. (Thanks to Apple's efforts policing the platform) iPhone users face maybe fewer virus problems, but the threat with confidential data is still there - and it only takes one threat. Android may face more viruses, but at the same time, there will also be more solutions from us and our competitors

    Open source and Closed source mobile platform faces security issue. An open source platform may be more prone to malwares and viruses. Some factors we should consider in our context here in education to protecting confidential contents and issues while considering developing apps. for example we could risk all of our contacts information being stolen and end up being sold to some advertising spamming companies who spam you daily or watches your daily activities.
  • bernard tan on 11 Nov 10
     
    I used to think open source platform was very good for development but now you can have different view if you think like a hacker. It will take at least a year or more before mobile security catch up.
