Tracking the DIY phenomenon Part 1: Widgets, badges, and gadgets One of the hallmarks of a good Web 2.0 site is one that hands over non-essential control to users, letting them contribute content, participate socially, and even fundamentally shape the site itself. The premise is that users will do a surprising amount of the hard work necessary to make the site successful, right down to creating the very information the site offers to its other users and even inviting their friends and family members to use it. Web 2.0 newcomers MySpace and YouTube have shown how this can be done on a mass scale surprisingly quickly, and of course older generation successes like eBay and craigslist have been doing this for years. Particularly younger, Web-savvy users have been encrusting their blogs and MySpace profiles with things like badges and widgets for a while now, especially now that a significant number of Web sites have opened up their content to let users do this. Motivation, Benefits, and Business Models Considerations when designing widgets
How to Create a Facebook Subscribe Widget for Your Website Last month Facebook launched the Subscribe feature that lets users select to receive the public updates of people they’re not friends with, similar to following someone on Twitter.

Here we’ll walk-through how to use Facebook’s existing profile badge creator and its ability to display the name of your latest Facebook Note to make a Subscribe widget. You can add this badge to any website to help you gain more subscribers and get more impressions and clicks on your updates.

You’ll now have a profile badge that displays a call to action to Subscribe to your updates.
Badgestack Is An Open-Source Tool For Gamifying Learning Microcredentials Whether you call them microcredentials, trophies, or badges, the idea of documenting progress and making trends visible is becoming increasingly popular across increasingly diverse digital platforms. While this approach fits naturally into literal games, “gamifying” a system that isn’t first a game is a new approach that dovetails nicely into elements of social media, where aggregating is effortless and curating is second nature. Enter BadgeStack. The Smithsonian Institute, the , and the U.S. Department of Education all use a model called BadgeStack, a set of gamification tools built by LearningTimes that enable badge-based learning. Now in version 2.0 (v2.0), these tools allow you to gamify a variety of formal and informal learning processes, offering stunning potential with the right kind of thinking. Think of this like twitter opening their API so that it can integrate with other platforms. Open Source & Internet-Wide Good thing then that BadgeStack is open source.

How to create multi-page Logins | 1Password 3 User Guide Some websites like banks or business admin portals employ multi-page login systems, usually as a security precaution. The theory is that these systems make it more difficult for a malicious hacker to use scripts and other tools to try and break into someone’s account. It is possible for you to still use 1Password with many of these sites, though you will have to create multiple Logins — one for each page of the site’s login process. The best practice we have found for multi-page login systems is to develop some kind of a naming scheme for each one, like “Bank 1,” “Bank 2,” “Bank 3,” etc. This will keep your Logins organized and easy to use for each step of the process when you want to log back in. Before we get started, click the 1Password button (a key icon) in your browser’s toolbar, select Settings > Logins, and ensure that the “Ask to save new logins” box is checked. How to create your multi-page Logins Step 1: Save the first Login This is where your naming scheme comes in handy.
Multisite Login Multisite Login allows a user to login to all sites in a multisite configuration, even though the multisites do not share domain names. For example: politicker.com politickernj.com politickerny.com etc. NOTE: if you are using several sites on the same domain (ex. politicker.com, nj.politicker.com, ny.politicker.com, etc.), then you do not need this module. This module was designed to be an alternative to the singlesignon module but using a technique that does not block search engines from accessing your websites. You must be: Using a multisite installation.Using a separate database for each site (no table prefixing, though the code could be modified to allow for this, patches welcome). See the README.txt file for more information.
Single sign-on Single sign-on (SSO) is a property of access control of multiple related, but independent software systems. With this property a user logs in once and gains access to all systems without being prompted to log in again at each of them. Conversely, single sign-off is the property whereby a single action of signing out terminates access to multiple software systems. As different applications and resources support different authentication mechanisms, single sign-on must internally translate and store credentials for the different mechanisms, from the credential used for initial authentication. Benefits[edit] Benefits of using single sign-on include: Reducing password fatigue from different user name and password combinationsReducing time spent re-entering passwords for the same identityReducing IT costs due to lower number of IT help desk calls about passwordsIncreases security of third party accounts because long and complicated passwords can be set without needing to remember them.
Crowdsource je werk met (enterprise) social media Social media dringt bij steeds meer organisaties binnen, maar veel mensen weten eigenlijk niet goed hoe ze het in moeten zetten. Ik kijk niet raar meer op als ik mensen "zo, vandaag eens lekker m’n bureau opruimen" zie Yammeren naar 20.000 collega's. Naar situaties waar mensen social media echt gebruiken voor hun werk moet je vaak goed zoeken. In mijn vorige artikel beschreef ik hoe je Enterprise Social Media (ESM) in kunt zetten om effectiever te vergaderen. In dit artikel beschrijf ik een belangrijke competentie die veel professionals moeten ontwikkelen: het crowdsourcen van je werk. Wat is crowdsourcen? Bij crowdsourcing gebruik je de enorme capaciteit van een grote groep mensen om een probleem op te kunnen lossen, nieuwe ideeën op te doen, informatie en kennis te vinden of om kleine taken uit te voeren. Waarom je werk crowdsourcen? Als je een plan moet maken, een voorstel moet schrijven of een onderzoek moet uitvoeren heb je bijna altijd informatie nodig die je zelf niet hebt. Tips
