Innovation: web 2.0, online-communities and mobile social networking

Abstract: Recently, an online social network phenomenon has swept over the Web and the signs say that Social Networking Sites (SNS) are growing in importance not just as places for individuals to communicate, network, and express themselves but also as advertising and marketing vehicles. Combining social networks to the mobile environment is a growing interest as it allows users to be in their online social community despite their mobility. To date, several surveys and studies have brought some insights into this field. However, methods are often not general or detailed enough for evaluation and comparison. In this study we highlight latest trends and evolution of Mobile Social Networking and Online-Communities. The existing research is reviewed and organized to summarize what we know about their usage. This paper concludes with discussion of new developments, challenges and opportunities. There are many opportunities for future research and organizational applications of SNS as SNS adoption grows at incredible rates. What we present in this study can be generalized for other enterprise-grade Social Networks, either for their own business purposes or as a contract job for another company.

Influence of gender and English proficiency on Facebook mobile adoption

Abstract: This study aims to empirically examine the influence of gender and English proficiency on Facebook Mobile (FbM) adoption from the Malaysian perspective. Questionnaire was administered to 400 undergraduates in a Malaysian private university. The results showed that there is a significant gender difference in Photographs and Status Updates. Positive correlations also exist between English proficiency and Social Connection, Shared Identities, Photographs and Content. Outcomes from the study have given direct or indirect implications to mobile communication manufacturers and service providers, mobile social networking researchers, photographs industry players and the society as a whole.

Advancing e-Recruiting Service Offering: Innovation through ICT

Abstract: paper we have analyzed different ICT-service innovations for users of e-recruiting sites: applicants, recruiters and personnel marketers. By analyzing the e-recruiting and services literature, an initial categorization of service offerings for e-recruiting sites was derived. Following the literature study, the service offerings of the largest 100 international e- recruiting sites were investigated. By comparing the data from the literature and the website analyses, strategies for differentiating e-recruiting service providers were derived. KeywordsICT service innovation, web 2.0 recruiting

Experiences with Threat Modeling on a Prototype Social Network

Abstract: Supported by the Web 3.0 platform that enables dynamic content sharing, social networking applications are a ubiquitous information exchange platform. Content sharing raises the question of privacy with concerns typically centered on vulnerabilities resulting in identity theft. Identifying privacy vulnerabilities is a challenging problem because mitigations are implemented at the end of the software development life cycle, sometimes resulting in severe vulnerabilities. The authors present a prototype experimental social networking platform (HACKMI2) as a case study for a comparative analysis of three popular industry threat-modeling approaches. They focus on identified vulnerabilities, risk impact, and mitigation strategies. The results indicate that software and/or asset-centric approaches provide only a high-level analysis of a system’s architecture and are not as effective as attacker-centric models in identifying highrisk security vulnerabilities in a system. Furthermore, attacker-centric models are effective in providing security administrators useful suggestions for addressing security vulnerabilities.
