Web 2.0 is a term used to describe a second generation of the World Wide Web that emphasizes user-generated content, usability, and interoperability. It allows users to interact and collaborate online by contributing user-created content through social media and virtual communities. Examples of Web 2.0 include social networking sites, blogs, wikis, video sharing sites, and web applications. David Gauntlett suggests that Web 2.0 has impacted access, ownership, power, and creativity by making media production equipment more accessible, giving audiences more control over what and when they consume media, and allowing ordinary people to produce and distribute content and have their voices heard.
Web 2.0 is a term used to describe a second generation of the World Wide Web that emphasizes user-generated content, usability, and interoperability. It allows users to interact and collaborate online as "prosumers" who both consume and create content. Examples of Web 2.0 include social media sites, blogs, wikis, video sharing sites, and web applications. Web 2.0 has given the public more access to media production tools and the ability to freely express themselves and share content online, competing with professional media. It has also increased user creativity and choice in how people access and engage with media.
This document discusses the shifting roles of consumers and producers in media. It explores how the rise of user-generated content and participatory culture online has blurred the lines between the two groups. While some argue this represents true participation, others note that the vast majority of users only consume content passively. The document also examines the economic motivations of companies in monetizing user data and behavior, as well as how what began as amateur online communities became increasingly professionalized.

Using the CC BY license, Workshop for 2013 OPEN Kick-offJane Park
Summary of session from OPEN Kickoff Conference for DOL TAACCCT Round 2 Grantees: This session will dive into detail about the CC BY licensing requirement and what it takes to apply the license to grantee materials. CC will go over the CC license chooser tool, examples of good license implementation, and content-sharing platforms where you can upload resources under the CC BY license. If enough time and interest, CC will also go over best practices for giving attribution to the creators of CC licensed works, especially as part of a larger resource, such as a textbook or course.

Today, desirability of products is manufactured by a brand – messages from an army of advertisers and companies spending billions of euros yearly to create a perception of desirability in their products or services. Tomorrow, the desirability of products will be more about the relationship created between an object and consumer – conversations before, during and after purchase that reflect the understanding of each other’s needs.
This talk explores desirability in the age of connected products – a provocation on designing for form, interaction and tone of voice when products can speak for themselves.
RÉFLEXIONS SUR LA CONSTRUCTION ET LE PILOTAGE D’UN PROJET OPEN
SOURCE
Cette publication, résultat d'un foisonnement intellectuel intense ayant duré plus d'une année,
représente à la fois une vulgarisation, un partage d'expérience et de préconisations quant à
l'usage de l'Open Source.
Les Logiciels Libres – ou Open Source – sont aujourd'hui couramment – si ce n'est systématiquement – utilisés
dans l'industrie de l'informatique (édition, intégration, système embarqué, etc.). Il est même possible d'affirmer,
sans langue de bois, qu'ils font partie intégrante de ces métiers : quel chef de projet ne s'est jamais posé la
question de la réutilisation d'un Logiciel Libre ? Quel client ne s'est pas vu proposer des solutions basées – au
moins en partie – sur des composants sous licence Open Source ?
1) Creative Commons licenses have been enforced in courts in various countries, including Belgium, Israel, and Germany. In these cases, authors sued for license breaches when their works were used without proper attribution or for commercial purposes without permission.
2) Community enforcement of Creative Commons licenses also occurs, such as when a far-right political party used an image without attribution and the author sought an injunction.
3) The document argues that while legal enforcement is important, over-reliance on lawyers could undermine the Creative Commons movement. Instead, Creative Commons should focus on building databases and improving licenses to make them more user-friendly, especially for institutions.

Presentation at the 13th International Free Software Forum, Sao Paulo, Brazil. Abstract: In Latin America, it’s well-understood that Brazil was pioneering in considering FOSS to be both a strategy and a tool for regional economic development. But what about the rest of the world? As FOSS/OSS enters the mainstream of industry, how are countries in Europe and Asia looking at this disruptive force in software development? And what is happening in the United States where one could argue a very strong proprietary software industry is reinventing itself, with the U.S. government both following and leading the open development model?
This talk discusses FOSS from the perspective of open information technology ecosystems and government’s role in them, providing a picture of the changing landscape of software industries and the potential for localized economic benefit to those participating. It includes a perspective of how governments are experimenting with becoming more directly involved with the open source community, and to learn from them. Stories and examples are drawn for the speakers experience, research and direct involvement with government, academic and industry bodies creating exemplary projects and reference models for others to consider.
The Korean Copyright Act of 2003 defines key terms related to databases and sui generis rights for databases. It defines a database as a collection of information arranged systematically that can be individually accessed. Database producers are those who make a substantial investment to produce, renew, verify or supplement a database. They have rights to control the reproduction, distribution, broadcasting or transmission of all or a substantial part of the database. Using a substantial part repetitively or systematically in a way that conflicts with the normal use of the database or prejudices the producer's interests violates these rights. The Act provides database producers exclusive rights and protection for 5 years, effectively in perpetuity.
The Remix Cycle is a framework for looking at sustainability as a media creator. Remix-it, Share-it, and Prof-it (and then back again, as the cylce goes on and on)
The document discusses options for revising the noncommercial (NC) licenses in Creative Commons' version 4.0 release. It notes that NC licenses have issues like a lack of clear definition, underuse of non-NC licenses, and built-in non-interoperability. Some proposed options are: (1) phasing out NC licenses over time, (2) simplifying the suite by dropping two NC licenses, (3) rebranding NC licenses under a different domain, or (4) clarifying the NC definition. The document analyzes pros and cons of different approaches but does not make a recommendation.

The capital of British India was shifted from Calcutta to Delhi in 1911. British architect Edwin Lutyens was tasked with planning and designing New Delhi. Lutyens designed an expansive garden city with wide avenues and classical buildings. Key elements of the design included the Rashtrapati Bhavan, Secretariat buildings, Parliament House, residential areas, and princely state palaces. However, the rapid growth of Old Delhi was not adequately planned for, leading to overcrowding and deterioration.

Transcript: On the rise: Book subjects on the move in the Canadian market - T...BookNet Canada
This webinar explores emerging trends in the types of books Canadians are buying. Using the most up-to-date data, we find out if Romantasy titles are still flying off the shelves at a feverish pace, whether Taylor Swift can sell books as well as she sells concert tickets, and how other sociocultural and demographic shifts are reflected in book-buying behaviour. BookNet Canada’s SalesData & LibraryData team, Lily Dwyer and Kalpna Patel, dig deep into the data to show you which subjects are on the move.

Implementing Function Calling LLMs without Fear.pdfBenjamin Bengfort
For an AI system to be an agent rather than a simple chatbot, it needs to be able to do work on behalf of its users, often accomplished through the use of Function Calling LLMs. Instruction-based models can identify external functions to call for additional input or context before creating a final response without the need for any additional training. However, giving an AI system access to databases, APIs, or even tools like our calendars is fraught with security concerns and task validation nightmares. In this talk, we'll discuss the basics of how Function Calling works and think through the best practices and techniques to ensure that your agents work for you, not against you!

CLI, HTTP, GenAI and MCP telemetry/observability in JavaPavel Vlasov
This presentation demonstrates Nasdanika telemetry/observability capabilities for CLI, HTTP, GenAI and MCP in Java.
With these capabilities you can build observable custom Java-based CLI tools, including MCP & HTTP servers, deployed to workstations, build pipelines, servers, Docker images, etc. and track usage of individual commands and their use of other resources - HTTP, AI Chat and Embeddings, MCP servers. You can also track MCP and HTTP server requests.
The CLI approach allows to leverage CPUs/GPUs of local workstations and local LLMs.
While local LLMs may not be very fast, they can be used in a batch mode, e.g. overnight. For example, generating code, analyzing merge requests, or tailoring resumes for job postings (using a CrewAI example - https://nasdanika-knowledge.github.io/crew-ai-visual-synopsis/tailor-job-applications/index.html).
Also, CLI-based tools can be used to deliver fine-grained functionality specific to a particular group of people. For example, a custom bundled RAG/Chat on top of a document base for, say, mortgage agents.

In recent years, the way we interact with language models has changed, as more people see value in crafting questions and statements that lead to well-behaved answers.
Monitor Kafka Clients Centrally with KIP-714Kumar Keshav
Apache Kafka introduced KIP-714 in 3.7 release, which allows the Kafka brokers to centrally track client metrics on behalf of applications. The broker can subsequently relay these metrics to a remote monitoring system, facilitating the effective monitoring of Kafka client health and the identification of any problems.
KIP-714 is useful to Kafka operators because it introduces a way for Kafka brokers to collect and expose client-side metrics via a plugin-based system. This significantly enhances observability by allowing operators to monitor client behavior (including producers, consumers, and admin clients) directly from the broker side.
Before KIP-714, client metrics were only available within the client applications themselves, making centralized monitoring difficult. With this improvement, operators can now access client performance data, detect anomalies, and troubleshoot issues more effectively. It also simplifies integrating Kafka with external monitoring systems like Prometheus or Grafana.
This talk covers setting up ClientOtlpMetricsReporter that aggregates OpenTelemetry Protocol (OTLP) metrics received from the client, enhances them with additional client labels and forwards them via gRPC client to an external OTLP receiver. The plugin is implemented in Java and requires the JAR to be added to the Kafka broker libs.
Be it a kafka operator or a client application developer, this talk is designed to enhance your knowledge of efficiently tracking the health of client applications.
