Keynote address: "Beyond the Web", Stewart Theatre, Talley Student Center
Speaker:
Dom Sagolla, co-creator of Twitter and founder of DollarApp.
[Click here for slides] Users of the Internet have changed dramatically from specialist experts to people of all backgrounds, ages, and nations. A wide range of information has become readily available from homes and workplaces. Social media like Twitter and Facebook are connecting and reconnecting people with each other, activities, and organizations. Smartphones and wireless Internet have made access possible almost anywhere.
Today gives just a glimpse of marvels that are around the corner - beyond the Web of today.
Dom Sagolla was one of the co-creators of Twitter and is author of "140 Characters: A Style Guide for the Short Form" (John Wiley and Sons, 2009; paperback and eBook, naturally). He is the founder of DollarApp, a San Francisco-based company developing $0.99 iPhone applications. Signaling his commitment to this new use of computing, he is a co-founder of iPhoneDevCamp, an international, not-for-profit developer community for the iPhone.
Dom has been an engineer in research and development at HP Laboratories, the MIT Media Lab, and Adobe Systems. He has contributed open source at Macromedia, Odeo, and Dom.net; has shipped applications such as Dreamweaver and the Adobe Creative Suite; and has delivered platforms such as Twitter, Adobe Flash, and AIR. One publicly noteworthy effort he was involved with was the official Obama '08 iPhone App, delivered in record time by an all-volunteer team.
Followed by question-and-answer period and a public reception with light refreshments.
