The Changing Path to Purchase: It's implications for eCommerce, in-store and ...MarcusThomasLLC
Technology impacts the nature of today's shopping experience. The linear path to purchase is dead. Today, the consumer creates his or her own path. Messages are secondary - it's all about engagement, with the consumer talking about his or her problems, passions and interests. A value exchange is the key principal to effective engagement (for sales or otherwise), and the value exchange doesn't necessarily need to include product features and benefits. The value exchange provides insight into who, what, when, where, how and why an audience is engaged.

Lifecycle emails, also known as drip email marketing, involve sending a series of automated emails to prospects and customers over time based on their behaviors and stage in the buying cycle. The emails are meant to nurture prospects by providing relevant content, building trust and relationships, addressing concerns, and ultimately moving them closer to becoming sales-ready leads. Effective lifecycle email programs segment audiences, map the buying cycle, develop content to align with each stage, automate email delivery, track engagement metrics, and integrate with CRM to handoff qualified leads to sales. Continuous testing and optimization of content, timing, and messaging is important to maximize results like conversion rates and revenue.
Marketing automation has enabled companies to massively scale their marketing efforts and take advantage of efficiencies at scale.

But doesn’t every business deserve the ability to access marketing automation tools that are cost-effective and easy to use? We think they do, so we reimagined our entire marketing automation solution.

Great Lakes Area .Net UG: Optimize .Net Azure App ServicesBrian McKeiver
Check out more on my blog at: https://www.mcbeev.com/
Azure App Services are basically the de facto standard as the best possible way to deploy and host a .Net Framework or .Net Core application, period. You can argue with me until you are blue in the face about other hosting methods or platforms, but you would still be wrong.
However, utilizing an Azure App Service as your hosting method is not the same as utilizing standard IIS, especially when it comes to optimization. During the session we will deploy a .Net Core MVC application to Azure, determine an initial baseline for performance, and then walk through how to configure various properties and server-side configurations that make that site blazing fast.
Prairie Code 2019: How to Win Friends and Influence Better Developer EstimatesBrian McKeiver
Let's face it, creating estimates for tasks is not an exact science. Whether it is points, hours, level of effort, or whatever else the next fad is, it all mostly boils down to what feels like a shot in the dark.
Join my session to find out a few lessons learned, tips, tricks, and strategies for creating accurate and timely estimates on your developer tasks. I'll share my experiences for creating the majority of estimates at my company for the past 17 years. I'd estimate that the amount of estimates I have created is more than 500 or so ...see what I did there?
At the end of the day, if you can create better estimates, than maybe your project managers will end up becoming another one of your long time friends.

After that Brian gave his impressions on what it means for .Net developers to leverage Kentico Cloud, Azure App services, and an API First approach to building www.casestream.net.
Content Last: A Strategy for Success or Failure?Brian McKeiver
The document discusses how content is often an afterthought in website development projects, with the site being built first and content added later. However, this approach usually leads to problems like design bugs, incorrect content structure, and delays. Instead, the document argues for a content-first approach where content creation is scheduled from the beginning of projects and sample content is developed during design phases. Developing real content throughout the process helps ensure the design and development work considers actual usage scenarios and avoids rework.
Amp up your Site with Accelerated Mobile PagesBrian McKeiver
My presentation from South Florida Code Camp 2016 on Accelerated Mobile Pages (AMP). SFLCC was in lovely Fort Lauderdale, Florida.
Google started AMP as an initiative to dramatically improve the performance of the mobile web. The main approach that AMP employs is placing HTML on a diet, in an attempt to gain breakneck speeds, for loading content on our mobile devices. This new open-source based framework throws out the standard approach to loading bloated CSS and JavaScript libraries and instead becomes a lean, mean superfast machine. Join me to find out what exactly are Accelerated Mobile Pages, what do they mean for search, and how can you prepare for it on your website?

AI Changes Everything – Talk at Cardiff Metropolitan University, 29th April 2...Alan Dix
Talk at the final event of Data Fusion Dynamics: A Collaborative UK-Saudi Initiative in Cybersecurity and Artificial Intelligence funded by the British Council UK-Saudi Challenge Fund 2024, Cardiff Metropolitan University, 29th April 2025
https://alandix.com/academic/talks/CMet2025-AI-Changes-Everything/
Is AI just another technology, or does it fundamentally change the way we live and think?
Every technology has a direct impact with micro-ethical consequences, some good, some bad. However more profound are the ways in which some technologies reshape the very fabric of society with macro-ethical impacts. The invention of the stirrup revolutionised mounted combat, but as a side effect gave rise to the feudal system, which still shapes politics today. The internal combustion engine offers personal freedom and creates pollution, but has also transformed the nature of urban planning and international trade. When we look at AI the micro-ethical issues, such as bias, are most obvious, but the macro-ethical challenges may be greater.
At a micro-ethical level AI has the potential to deepen social, ethnic and gender bias, issues I have warned about since the early 1990s! It is also being used increasingly on the battlefield. However, it also offers amazing opportunities in health and educations, as the recent Nobel prizes for the developers of AlphaFold illustrate. More radically, the need to encode ethics acts as a mirror to surface essential ethical problems and conflicts.
At the macro-ethical level, by the early 2000s digital technology had already begun to undermine sovereignty (e.g. gambling), market economics (through network effects and emergent monopolies), and the very meaning of money. Modern AI is the child of big data, big computation and ultimately big business, intensifying the inherent tendency of digital technology to concentrate power. AI is already unravelling the fundamentals of the social, political and economic world around us, but this is a world that needs radical reimagining to overcome the global environmental and human challenges that confront us. Our challenge is whether to let the threads fall as they may, or to use them to weave a better future.

TrustArc Webinar: Consumer Expectations vs Corporate Realities on Data Broker...TrustArc
Most consumers believe they’re making informed decisions about their personal data—adjusting privacy settings, blocking trackers, and opting out where they can. However, our new research reveals that while awareness is high, taking meaningful action is still lacking. On the corporate side, many organizations report strong policies for managing third-party data and consumer consent yet fall short when it comes to consistency, accountability and transparency.
This session will explore the research findings from TrustArc’s Privacy Pulse Survey, examining consumer attitudes toward personal data collection and practical suggestions for corporate practices around purchasing third-party data.
Attendees will learn:
- Consumer awareness around data brokers and what consumers are doing to limit data collection
- How businesses assess third-party vendors and their consent management operations
- Where business preparedness needs improvement
- What these trends mean for the future of privacy governance and public trust
This discussion is essential for privacy, risk, and compliance professionals who want to ground their strategies in current data and prepare for what’s next in the privacy landscape.
Artificial Intelligence is providing benefits in many areas of work within the heritage sector, from image analysis, to ideas generation, and new research tools. However, it is more critical than ever for people, with analogue intelligence, to ensure the integrity and ethical use of AI. Including real people can improve the use of AI by identifying potential biases, cross-checking results, refining workflows, and providing contextual relevance to AI-driven results.
News about the impact of AI often paints a rosy picture. In practice, there are many potential pitfalls. This presentation discusses these issues and looks at the role of analogue intelligence and analogue interfaces in providing the best results to our audiences. How do we deal with factually incorrect results? How do we get content generated that better reflects the diversity of our communities? What roles are there for physical, in-person experiences in the digital world?
