Business Value Of Blogging

Business Value Of Blogging

Why are so few companies blogging? The phenomenon has been mainstream for a few years already, so many have probably considered it. Obviously, this has not yet spurred them to action.

Introduction
To blog or not to blog?
Why are so few companies blogging? The phenomenon has been mainstream for a few years already, so many have probably considered it. Obviously, this has not yet spurred them to action. This is not entirely surprising. One could imagine a typical discussion about blogging to go something like this:

CEO: “This blogging thing, what can it do for us?”
Marketer: “Well, it would improve our ability
to interact with our audience, among other
things.”

CEO: “That doesn’t tell me anything. Does it
bring in any sales leads? Will our reputation
increase? Are there any risks involved?”
Marketer: “That depends on a lot of factors.
If we...”

CEO: “You lost me. Come back when you
have a business case. Or when our
competitor starts doing it.”

If there’s one thing companies have learned from the past decade of technical innovation, it’s to think twice before investing in anything new that comes along – especially when it’s not clear what the costs and benefits will be. The days of corporations spending money on new technology just because ‘it looks cool’ or ‘everybody else is doing it’ are definitely over (for now, at least). Of course, making such a cost-benefit analysis is always difficult, but most innovations can at least be compared to their predecessors – making it easier to paint a picture of the impact they might have. A new multifunctional printer, for instance, could lower your printing costs, make your brochures look nicer, offer extra capacity – but in the end it’s still a printer. It will very likely print and scan stuff, but the chances that it inadvertently influences your sales process are minimal.

Not so with blogs. They represent the first truly interactive, one-to-many communication channel that companies have ever possessed, touching on several different business processes at once. No one has experience with that kind of thing. Moreover, blogs come in different flavors, each with their own strengths and weaknesses. Altogether, there are so many uncertainties involved that most companies that consider blogging often feel they’re about to run blindfold into a dense forest. Any decision on blogging should therefore start with an in-depth analysis of the business benefits that the various types of blogs might bring to a company, followed by an assessment of requirements for each of those blog types. These are the first two steps of the Four-Step Guide to Blogging. Once you’ve done that and determined which blog types are most suitable for your needs, it’s time to turn the question around and ask yourself if you could achieve the expected benefits in a different manner. Looking at the alternatives for blogging is step three. Lastly, you have to consider the factors involved in making a blog successful, many of which you have under your control. However, there are also several key success factors, both within and outside your company, that you cannot influence directly.
The fourth step involves looking at the noninfluenceable success factors for your own specific situation, and adjusting step 1 to 3 accordingly.

The Four-Step Guide to Blogging
1. Identify possible benefits
2. Determine requirements
3. Evaluate alternatives
4. Adjust for non-influenceable success factors
Before we go into more detail on this, we will first take a closer look at what blogs really are, and outline the different type of corporate blogs a company can use.

Toshiba Face Recognition v1.0.3.32

2008-08-08T20:23:00.003-07:00

Face recognition provides an important means for realizing a man-machine interface and security.

The proposed face recognition method can detect and recognize human faces from images captured by a camera.

Features of the method:

Speedy and high-precision face detection algorithm.
Robust against the changes of facial pose and expression, using a sequential face image.
High-performance classification ability by projecting onto multiple constraint subspaces.

Toshiba has added an interesting feature to its new Satellite notebooks that allows users to log onto their notebook without typing or swiping a finger. The new Satellite U400, M300, A300, and P300 notebooks are all equipped with Toshiba Face Recognition software.

This software uses the built-in webcam to recognize the users face and log them into the notebook automatically. The software stores images of authorized users’ faces and logs them into personal accounts on the computer. The software will allow multiple users of one system to log into individual accounts as well.

It also works using a normal webcam with other - older - models.

Lenovo VeriFace Face Recognition

2008-08-08T20:23:00.001-07:00

Download Link :

Code:

http://rapidshare.com/files/116001345/Lenovo_VeriFace_Face_Recognition_Software_WITH_CRACK.rar

INFO :

Code:

Some of our Lenovo notebooks come with face recognition software, which is actually a reemergence of an old idea. We had facial recognition capabilities a long time ago. My first experience was with a ThinkPad T23 with an external camera mounted on the system’s UltraPort. It didn’t work well at all. Most likely because the cameras of that era were terrible. I think they were 0.3 megapixels, but may not have even been that much.

Now that some systems include integrated cameras with much better quality (1.3MP), facial recognition has become much better. The included software lets you log onto your Windows account simply by sitting in front of your system. Your face is your password. What is much cooler is that it is very user friendly for multiple user accounts. For example, let’s say you have three Windows accounts – Mom, Dad, and Sis. If you have associated their faces with their respective user accounts, the system determines which person is in front of the computer when Windows boots and automatically logs them onto the right account. In practice this works very well and is extremely fast at recognition. I was able to test this with several of my colleagues and each time all they had to do was sit in front of the computer and the system took care of the rest.

Depending on the software used, face recognition uses multiple techniques to identify a person’s face. Some of the more advanced programs use texture mapping in which a person’s skin texture is analyzed and matched. Most however, define nodal points on a person’s face and then use software to mathematically represent those points. Things measured include distance between the eyes, width of the nose, length of the jaw line, or shape of the cheekbones. Together these concatenate a numerical code which is stored in a database for later retrieval.

One particular aspect of the software Lenovo uses is rather freaky. When you sit down in front of the camera, the system generates two white dots that follow your eyes. Of course, this is completely harmless and is nothing more than a few white pixels shown on screen. However, when I see this, I immediately think that there are two lasers drilling holes into my corneas. Neurotic, yes, but that doesn’t stop me from wishing there was a way to turn this off. Others I polled liked the feature, so your experience may be totally different.

Of course, a feature like face recognition invites play, and what better way to play than to try and fool the software.

First up was an 8 x 10 color glossy photograph of yours truly (with circles and arrows and a paragraph on the back). No matter how I held the photograph, no matter whether the security settings were set high or at their lowest setting, no matter what angle I held the photo, I was not able to use it to log onto the system. The result was exactly what I had expected – that the software was smart enough to distinguish a face from a picture of a face.

My next experiment was to see if the system recognized all types of faces. Sitting at home, I tried to enroll both of my birds. The software wouldn’t enroll them. I thought that perhaps that since their eyes were not at the front of their heads, the camera couldn’t see both at once and therefore couldn’t get a good reading. So next I tried my friend Jim’s cat. Same result – the software refused to accept the cat, but did happen to enroll Jim’s face when he got too close to the camera while holding the cat. Just for good measure, I tried another friend’s dog. On all of these, the software wouldn’t enroll the animals. So it seems that only human faces are recognized and accepted by the software.

It was time for one last experiment. Many people are familiar with the fabled two-key system to launch nuclear missiles. In this scenario, no one person can launch the weapons. It takes two people standing several yards apart turning the keys simultaneously to make it work. What if we could apply that same principle here – requiring TWO faces, not one, to log onto a user’s account? While we wouldn’t be launching nuclear weapons, such a scenario could be useful in any number of ways.

So I sat side by side with my friend Aimee in Lenovo’s Product Reviews lab to see if we could make this work. We created a new Windows account and tried to enroll both of our faces at once. The lighting was good, and since we were sitting at the same height right next to each other, we were more or less equal in the eyes of the camera. The software indicated a good capture, so we logged off. We sat down together and the system logged us on successfully. Then we tried just sitting in front of the system one by one. It logged on Aimee, but didn’t accept my face.

For good measure, we tried the whole setup one more time. Again, it picked Aimee’s face over mine. So not only is the software biased towards human faces, it also is biased towards women’s faces. I guess I should feel marginalized, but I’m more amused than anything else.

Overall I was impressed with the software. It was fast, accurate, and easy to use. Supposedly there is a password management feature where you can use your face to act as your password – much like on our fingerprint reader models. I haven’t tried it out yet, but if it is just as easy to use, then I think it would be a very viable solution.

Face Recognition login-login with your webcam! 100% WORKING

2008-08-08T20:22:00.001-07:00

Info:
Like the future? BananaScreen adds face recognition login to your webcam-enabled Windows computer. To use, just install BananaScreen and create a face model. Then set up BananaScreen to lock after a predefined amount of inactivity (or hit Alt-L to lock at any time). Once locked, BananaScreen will keep an eye on faces coming and going in front of the camera. When it matches yours, it immediately unlocks your computer. Cool, huh?
