"Pimp Up Your Stuff!": How To Exploit The Social Web
Using social web services like blogs, wikis, social networks and video sharing sites can help maximize access to an organization's resources, ideas and brand. These services allow engagement with potential audiences and monitoring how the organization is discussed online. An example is given of the Brooklyn Museum which uses services like blogs, Facebook, Flickr and YouTube very effectively. It is concluded that ignoring the potential of social media risks losing out to peers, and using these services can support an organization's mission.

This document provides a summary of a blog post from 2009 discussing technology trends and forecasting the future. It begins by describing the optimistic views of technologies at the time, like videoconferencing and Twitter. However, it notes critics who argue this is "technological determinism" that promises more than technologies deliver.
The blog post then discusses an approach the author took - forecasting technologies backwards in time to give plausible reasons for their demise. For example, it suggests Twitter would not scale and become "clogged", seen as similar to email spam, and be replaced by meeting in real pubs with real friends. For videoconferencing, it speculates research may find people prefer face-to-face meetings and

When Staff and Researchers Leave Their Host Institutionlisbk
When staff and researchers leave their host institution, it is important to ensure they can continue their professional work and engage with their communities.

Can We Mine JISCMail Lists? Can We Talk About MailMine?lisbk
Brian Kelly from UKOLN presented on mining JISCMail lists. He discussed the value of mailing lists in scholarly work but noted limitations with current software. He demonstrated MailMine, a prototype for analyzing mailing list archives. However, legal and ethical issues need addressed before using such tools on lists like JISCMail due to ownership and privacy concerns. Next steps may include addressing these issues or exploring alternatives like US-based lists to avoid UK barriers. The goal is determining if text mining is needed and how to do so responsibly.

The document discusses the University of Wales, Newport's strategy for adopting and supporting Web 2.0 technologies to enhance the student experience. It outlines how the university changed its approach from focusing only on course materials to recognizing how technologies like blogs, wikis and social networking could improve communication between students, staff and the university. The strategy aims to provide some Web 2.0 services while also supporting external tools, address technical, teaching and marketing challenges, and fully deploy these technologies in the next academic year.
The document discusses the University of Wales, Newport's strategy for adopting and supporting Web 2.0 technologies to enhance the student experience. It outlines how the university initially focused on using its virtual learning environment (VLE) to distribute course materials but has since recognized the importance of social technologies. The strategy updates the IT strategy to support emerging technologies like blogs and wikis and become a more agile service. It also discusses the technical, teaching, marketing, and legal challenges of implementing this new approach.

Technological Challenges Posed By Web 2.0 discusses how Web 2.0 has changed the rules for e-learning by providing new technical capabilities and shifting user behaviors and expectations. It argues that academic and educational institutions need to fund development differently, deploy services differently, and revisit their relevance in light of these changes. Specifically, it suggests that global social networks will become more important, that embracing constraints can provide useful services quickly, and that outsourcing infrastructure can deliver cost savings and richer functionality.

Digital Natives Run by Digital Immigrants: IT Services Are Dead – Long Live I...lisbk
The document discusses how IT services must transform to keep up with "digital natives" who are accustomed to web 2.0 tools. It argues that IT services should embrace these tools by using them to deliver services collaboratively at scale, rather than seeing them as a threat. IT managers have a role to play by adopting policies that encourage openness and participation in community activities to help transform IT services into "IT services 2.0".
The document discusses how Web 2.0 technologies like blogs, wikis, RSS, and user-generated content have changed how people use and share information online. It argues that services should embrace these new technologies and practices, such as allowing external content to be embedded, trusting users, and developing lightweight and distributed systems rather than trying to compete directly with large commercial providers.
The document discusses how Web 2.0 technologies like blogs, wikis, RSS, and user-generated content have changed how people use and share information online. It argues that services like Intute were pioneers in these approaches before the term "Web 2.0" was coined. Looking ahead, it suggests institutions embrace new models where commercial services host content and applications, and find ways to enhance rather than compete with popular third-party sites.

7. The Cloud Web 2.0 Characteristic: ‘ Network as the platform’ Originally perceived a a threat to IT Services (Thatcherite out-sourcing)? Used to scare senior managers at UCISA 2006 Today: Becoming accepted See Sheffield University & GMail Use the cloud & save the planet? Also see Bath Web Team’s work (on ‘Eternal Beta’)
8. The Student Experience From the report: Web 2.0 technologies being deployed across broad spectrum of university activities Deployment is not systematic; drive is bottom up UK is well-positioned There is no implementation blueprint for Web 2.0 Implications for institutions: Senior management should now take notice of the early adopters! Don’t put unnecessary blocks in place Time to explore institutional opportunities (new funding?) Let’s not forget researchers & staff What should Bath do?
9. Web 2.0 What Is Web 2.0? Marketing term (derived from observing 'patterns') rather than technical standards - “an attitude not a technology” Web2MemeMap, Tim O’Reilly, 2005 Characteristics Of Web 2.0 Network as platform Always beta Clean URIs Remix and mash-ups Syndication (RSS) Architecture of participation Blogs & Wikis Social networking Social tagging (folksonomies) Trust and openness Web 2.0
10. Benefits of Web 2.0/Social Web Delivery Mechanisms (“network as platform”): Global outreach : maximise impact of and engagement with ideas Outsourced services : allowing organisations to focus on their strengths and small institutions to engage on more equal terms Exploits infrastructure : the standards (e,g. RSS) & services (Google, Amazon, ..) now in place User Benefits: User can create content Can comment on other’s content Can engage with others Users no longer passive consumers of content Isn’t this an important aspect of what learning & research is about?
11. Social Web and Students Benefits: Social activities Informal learning Accessing formal learning resources in preferred user environment Exploiting potential of mobile devices Building up network of contacts How: Using a user’s preferred PLE Can we regard a student’s social network as a more democratic equivalent of the old school tie (public school) network
12. Social Web & Staff/Researchers Benefits As for students Establishing links with new professional contacts Maximising impact of new ideas How: Using a user’s preferred PRE Increasingly Web 2.0-savvy staff may be managing their ‘personal brand’, professional impact and engaging in personal identity management
13. Social Web and Librarians / E-Learning Support Staff What’s the role of libraries and/or e-learning support staff in a Social Web environment: Developing and implementing new media literacy strategies for students Professional training & development in new media literacy for staff and researchers Ensuring resources can be surfaced in a variety of environments (PLEs and PREs)
14. Social Web and IT Services What’s the role of IT Service departments in a Social Web environment: Not to get in the away Embracing a diversity of solutions & preferred environments Providing a safe & reliable infrastructure, which reflects the risk assessment of the user community To be prepared to argue for preferred best practices, but to be willing to give priority to user preferences Engage with the users who are happy with the status quo Using the Social Web to support departmental aims & objectives

17. Senior Managers Chris Sexton: Director at Sheffield Uni & UCISA Chair Prolific blogger since 2007 Hosted on Blogger Valuable trip reports (e.g. Educause) Also uses Twitter Note recent post on deployment of Google Mail for students: “ Formally announced the Google mail for students option last night by sending an email to all staff and students. Replies are split almost 50/50. From students saying this is great news, and from staff saying why can't we have it!”
18. Who’s Blogging & Who’s Not? Senior Managers: David Harrison, Cardiff Michael Webb, Newport Graham Hill, Bradford New director, UCL Where are the: Information Officers? Trainers? SysAdmins? Network staff … Are senior managers blogging because of others concerns over AUP, precedents, …? Note see my “ Defend this Tory MP (yes, really!) ” blog post In-house (& Twitterer) In-house (& Twitterer) Hosted on Blogger
20. Resource Investigation Who else has implemented the services we’re planning? Did it work? What problems did they have? What are the users saying about us? Have we done something wrong? How do we respond? We used to have email & annual conferences We now have rich portfolio of tools (blogs, Twitter, wikis, Skype, …) Particular benefits for IT staff – we’re comfortable with IT!
21. What About Twitter? Twitter is part of my portfolio of support, dissemination, user engagement & social) tools There’s a need to: Be prepared to experiment & innovate Identify emerging patterns of best practice Avoid developing policies too soon Questions : Multiple Twitter accounts? News dissemination or user engagement? Do you follow back and respond? Should BUCS promote access? Is there a role for Yammer? …
22. The Researcher’s Perspective A repositories report published by UKOLN – but some criticisms from Stephen Downes. Blog post spotted (Technorati search for ‘UKOLN’) and response made (and accepted)
23. What Are They Saying About BUCS? They hate you! (Well one or two people said they did) But it’s now gone quiet. Is monitoring Facebook: A sensible approach to gauging user views? An intrusion into personal space? Neither? Both?
24. IT Services 1.0! We need to avoid simplistic solutions to the complexities: Open Standards Fundamentalist: we just need XML Open Source Fundamentalist: we just need Linux Ownership Fundamentalist: must own everything Vendor Fundamentalist: we must use next version of our enterprise system (and you must fit in with this) Accessibility Fundamentalist: must do WAI WCAG User Fundamentalist: must do whatever users want Legal Fundamentalist: it breaches copyright, … Perfectionist : It doesn't do everything, so we'll do nothing Simplistic Developer : I've developed a perfect solution – I don't care if it doesn't run in the real world Web 2.0 : It’s new; its cool! Slide first used at UCISA Management Conf: “So true!”
25. IT Services 2.0 IT Services 2.0: Coined by Mark Salmon Used in recorded talk at UCISA Conference 2008 Embraced by David Harrison (Information Services 2.0) Opportunity for rethinking role (again!)

26. Deployment Strategies Interested in using Web 2.0 in your organisation? Worried about corporate inertia, power struggles, etc? There’s a need for a deployment strategy: Addressing business needs Low-hanging fruits Encouraging the enthusiasts (don’t get in the way) Gain experience of the browser tools – and see what you’re missing! Staff training & development Address areas you feel comfortable with Impact analysis and assessment Risk and opportunity management strategy Culture of sharing and openness …
27. Risk Management JISC infoNet Risk Management infoKit: “ In education, as in any other environment, you can’t decide not to take risks: that simply isn’t an option in today’s world. All of us take risks and it’s a question of which risks we take ” Examples of people who are likely to be adverse stakeholders: People who fear loss of their jobs People who will require re-training People who may be moved to a different department / team People .. required to commit resources to the project People who fear loss of control over a function or resources People who will have to do their job in a different way People who will have to carry out new or additional functions People who will have to use a new technology
28. Critical Friends / Friendly Critics JISC U&I programme is encouraging establishment of “Critical Friends” See <http://critical-friends.org/> Critical Friends has a formal definition, providing an informed but confidential advice and feedback. Friendly critics, however, may give such advice in an open forum Paul Walk (UKOLN) was described as a ‘critical friend’ of JISC See <http://dev8d.jiscinvolve.org/2009/ 02/10/five-minute-interview-paul-walk/>
