Web 2.0?

Web 2.0 is a term which describes the trend in the use of World Wide Web technology and web design that aims to enhance creativity, information sharing, and, most notably, collaboration among users. These concepts have led to the development and evolution of web-based communities and hosted services, such as social-networking sites, wikis and blogs

Digital Footprints

Managing risk

Caveat

• The web is all about people, and people are all about communicating

Identity

• Go Google yourself

Every interaction we have on the internet leaves a digital impression. In some way, shape or form your activity is having an effect on the whole of the web.

And in many cases the impression it leaves is visible.

There good news and bad news

• This is the bad news

• Security

Reputation

A survey of HR and business managers

• 32% search the internet and check social networking websites to gather background and behaviour information on potential recruits and existing employees.

• 24% said they have been put off hiring someone by what they found

• Of the 68% who had not searched for data on would-be staff online, 44% said they would do so in the future

But the good news is…

Reputation Management

• A survey of HR and business managers reported that 32% search the internet and check social networking websites to gather background

Good online identities stand out!

“To have a great cyber identity you have to record events and put them on your page. So your life in the real world is a way of gathering material for your online persona.”

Wendy Fonarow, Professor of Anthropology, UCLA

Three key steps to building an online academic reputation

One: Develop a good

solid ‘home base’

Two: Join appropriate

communities, BlogLink back

Three: Actively manage & manage activity

Intellectual Property

• A good online identity Will help establish your IPR• Moral rights issues

Will arise if individuals’ contributions to a Web 2.0 application are quoted out of context, are misquoted, or are not correctly attributed to the originator.

• Performers’ rights issuesArise if any performance (theatrical, musical, oral, dance or even simply a lecture) is reproduced in whole or in part in a Web 2.0 application.
