Life Style example

An example of Life Style could be Zalando. It is an online interactive magazine where you can buy shoes easily with a quick ordering and delivery. Then they expanded their idea to fashion and advices about clothes and currently sell it also. Their is no shop to buy all of their products, it is only on internet and they are focused on actual news and style of shoes and clothes through interviews, video and articles.

Four principles for the open world - Don Tapscott video

1.What is Don’s term for the generation that has grown up “bathed in bits”?
Answer d. Net Generation

 
2.When Rob McEwen’s geologists were having difficulty identifying the presence and location of the gold in his mines, what radical approach did he take?
Answer b. Released his data and held the Goldcorp Challenge
 
3. What does Don mean when he says we have a “burning platform” for change?
 
The global crisis creates a burning platform: he uses the example of wall street  as a global capitalism: somewhere where the cost of things were you are are greater than the cost of moving something radically different. We need to change and open up to this new environment.
 
4. According to Don’s four meanings of openness, what is the difference between “transparency”
and “sharing”?
 
Transparency is a communication of information, we need to have good values and Sharing is about giving up assets and think differently about intellectual property.
 
5. What happens to power structures as knowledge becomes increasingly distributed?
Answer b. Power becomes decentralized
 
6. According to Don, the internet did not give rise to an information age, but instead gave rise to:
Answer e. The Age of Networked Intelligence

 
7. Don uses an example from nature to demonstrate his four principles for openness. Which
example does he choose, and in what ways does it exhibit these principles?
To demonstrate his four principles for openness, Don use the example of bird’s murmaration in the area of Edinburgh: they come together and create one of the most spectacular thing of nature. This act has a function; it protects the birds from predator because they chase it away. This  is about leadership but there is no one leader! It is a huge collaboration, a sens of interdependence  we should understand and think about it for our human world. The aim should be to share our intelligence, create collective intelligence , to create some kind of consciousness.

Power of mobile devices growth

 

1. Any Screen Any Time.
Smart devices are recent technology development in different application sectors and is a life changing for various people. Internet becomes a life essential and today part of the basic human rights is to have internet access. The high speed growth make the access easy to eveyone through smart mobile phones and tablet devices, iPhone iOS revolution with the Android OS phones.
Currently we also have non traditional ones : on treadmill, on dash board of our car and even in a plane !

2. What is great about it, is that you can enhanced your experience through mobile : if you see something wonderful during your vacation that you like so much you can check on wikipedia what it is exacly and even share pictures of what you enjoyed (places, arts, location...) and then look it up again later on the site you loaded it sooner... You also can for instance, when you are having a great evening in a bar you love, check the bar on facebook and then follow news about it and give you more opportunity to go back there often.

3. A customer during his stay at a hotel could take pictures of differents activities he did and enjoyed and post it with comments on the hotel's blog, so the hotel could offers him discount for its next stay or even during its stay if he posts it while he is there. A more commun example is that people who are looking for a place (bar, theatre, restaurant...) and have a picture on their mobile phone or the adress on their e-mail on their mobile and they directly show it to the conciergerie who will explain where is it and even make a reservation and so on.
With the new application Vine on twitter you can create short video of for instance a women enjoying her stay at the hotel and so show all the advantages of our hotel to enhance it! People could so have a quick and clear visualisation of why choose this hotel.

4. List the customer decision journey digital touchpoints shown in one of the scene.
 See a tourism advert on TV at home, then visit the site on the mobile and save the URL to check it deaper later. Visit the site again during a break and call to a make a booking...
