Anarchy in the Ecosystem

Introduction


Where are we going?


Where are we going?

Very few people live in a single device world anymore.


Where are we going?

The days of audiences viewing content on only a desktop are dying:


Where are we going?

There will be about fifteen billion devices connected by 2015, and around forty billion devices

by 2020. - Cisco


Where are we going?

By 2020 nodes/sensors will account for the majority (60 percent) of the total installed base of IoE

(Internet of Everything) devices. - ABI


Where are we going?

That means 16 BILLION devices will need content in 2020.


Where are we going?

All these devices require content...Where will all this content come from?!


Where are we going?According to Flurry:

- If you want to reach 80% of the current mobile device market you need to support 156 device models.


Where are we going?

In the modern day fresh content is driven by a singular content source.


Where are we going?

I believe open source is the answer!

And WordPress will be coming out and serving even more audiences and devices.


Where are we going?

Open source is making inroads into larger groups often for a fairly simple reason.

Where are we going?

That’s a whole lot of users already trained on a CMS. User acceptance is easy.


Where are we going?

So initial content is now created first in open source CMS’. Then will drive to the connected device

world.


Where are we going?

During the talk if you were there this is where i told the funny story of prototyping a smart dog bowl in

six hours. I used Arduino, analog sensors, SensorMonkey, WordPress, and Good Barber.

(It was a good story)


SensorMonkey - sensormonkey.eeng.nuim.ieMoving Arduino sensor systems into the cloud, then

into WordPress.


EXAMPLE - GoodBarber - www.goodbarber.comFeed pre-built native iOS and Android applications

from a WordPress plug in.

Where are we going?

Soon open source will not only displays the web’s content but drive to other systems as well.
