According to an algorithm, the 4 ingredients required are congruency, emotive strength, network involvement, and something called "paired meme synergy"
Interesting! Think this algorithm may be highly applicable to creating enticing and engaging e-learning apps (especially those that have a social sharing element)...
Awww... how cute!!! This is a technology that will bring in lots of joy & laughters to everyone, adults & kids!
This marketing campaign by Disney is very successful!
Facebook is a known productivity killer. However, it has one advantage over other apps: everyone uses it. You can use it for more than just cat memes and baby pictures. Here are some of the most useful things you can do.
Story Bumping: Stories you haven’t seen yet because they were “below the fold,” on News Feed are eligible to be bumped up further in News Feed the next time you check Facebook.
Last Actor: Facebook will take into account the last 50 engagements of a user, giving more weight to people and pages the user has recently interacted with.
Many company owners want to cut down the cost of reduction and running of the business. Its not easy since they have to keep up with tax filing, high cost of filing the returns and running the business.
Hi Ashley, I've been reading through this section for developers: http://tincanapi.com/page-developers/.
From what I understand so far, an LRS should do at least one of the following:
- Standardize and serialize the various types of data from different networks (e.g. Twitter, Facebook) into an LMS-friendly format
- Act as a stand-alone enterprise-level web-service from which other web-services can extract the collated data for their own usage.
The Tin Can APIs look useful so far for our own use (including mobile support), since they support Javascript, Objective C and Java.
I believe these APIs can link up with Google Enterprise Apps for greater LRS functionality too.
very useful article for those working on forms. especially the new workshop admin module website. instead of a full form, a interactive experience as such brings higher motivation and helps user to navigate the form with ease

Low-cost video recorders are everywhere. Companies will need video content management systems and better design skills, and they’ll need to address privacy issues and policy concerns
Well,
that was quick. Right after yesterday's surprising announcement,
Sony flew its yet-to-be-released NEX-VG10 camcorder into London just in time for
today's showcase event. Naturally, we had to get our hands on this shiny baby,
and boy we were impressed. In case you missed the news, this snazzy device is
the world's first consumer HandyCam with interchangeable lens, meaning you can
share E-mount lenses with your young NEX DSLRs, or take advantage of
the abundant A-mount lenses with the help of an adapter (which will cost you
extra, mind you). Likewise, there are also hot and cold shoe mounts on the mic
shaft to cater your current camera accessories. Read on for our thoughts on the
rest of the camcorder -- we've put together a little sample clip for you at the
end as well.
There
isn't much to complain about with this $2,000 (and, sadly, possibly £2,000 for
the Brits) piece of kit in terms of appearance and ergonomics. We like being
able to hold it by either the seemingly solid body (using the strap) or the mic
shaft, and both ways provided comfortable grip without much fatigue due to the
light weight (even with the bundled lens). We were also able to quickly master
the jog-dial control next to the 3-inch screen, but for this price, we expected
a touchscreen interface as well to make life easier. As for the bundled F3.5-6.3
18-200mm lens, we found that zooming required a bit more effort than we liked,
so thankfully there's auto focus mode -- just like any ordinary camcorder -- to
save us from further wrist work with the focus ring. We must also point out that
unlike the Olympus PEN,
this Sony camcorder didn't pick up any mechanical noise from its lens auto
focussing; otherwise, this kit totally wouldn't deserve such price tag.
Of
course, what we really care about is the picture and sound quality. All is
revealed in our sample reel below (remember to enable HD playback mode), but in
brief: stunningly accurate colors, sharp 1080/60i picture, and impressive audio
sensitivity (notice how the mic was able to pick up conversations from afar; you
can also enable just the front mics to minimise background noise). You may
notice some shakiness while we were adjusting the lens -- we'll blame it on our
lack of practice from the little hands-on time we had. Regardless, the NEX-VG10
certainly lived up to our expectation, and we look forward to hear what the
filming hobbyists think of this prosumer-level camcorder when it comes out in
September.
Update: commenter
aim120 dropped us a link to Sony's own sample clip. Enjoy!
