Viral marketing

Some ideas about how to make viral videos successful!

The evolution of the Web-The machine is us/ing us

A nice video about user generated content and the evolution of the web technology. Web 2.0 and beyond...The machine is us/ing us?-or digital ethnography?

Social Network for ePhilantropy

It'sOneHumanity (IOH) is a social network for humanitarians.

About IOH:
"Launched on February 5th 2011, this social network represents a strategic effort to unite humanitarians around the world, engage them into discussion and facilitate the mutual education process to ultimately create powerful grass-root social movements that will help us fulfill our mission and change the world in line with our vision."

Great concept and interesting network. Bringing people with a similar mindset together to enable collaborative action.

Web Interaction design-best practices

One of my students from Spring 2011 class think that Nike's website is a great website in terms of web interaction design see the student comment below.

The designer and developer Ian Coyle has done a fantastic job of making the routine and even mundane experience of scrolling an enjoyable and exciting user experience, by means of the so-called "parallax-effect".

Interaction design with gloves

This is a "minority report" style of Interaction design. One can manipulate and control virtual objects just like in real world using gloves.

Women Behavior on Facebook- data analysis example

This is a simple example of basic descriptive statistics  analysis of women behavior on Facebook. As one can read in the Mashable article, this study was intended to investigate new business models on Web 2.0 but it lead to some other findings about women and their Facebook friends.

Do you agree with this study?
