NETIQUETTE RULE

 

Share expert knowledge






One of the basics of online behaviour is the Netiquette rules. Today we are going to discuss rule number 6. A rule that for me seems to be key to be able to learn and enjoy your online experience to the fullest.
Share the knowledge of experts so that other people can soak up valuable information for your knowledge. It is appreciated that when you don't know about a subject yourself, you can find almost all the information about it compiled and verified their own sources. So you should do the same when you see a topic that is difficult to learn about, compile and write about. Even if you are the expert on the subject, don't be selfish and keep it to yourself, maybe someone else who also knows about your subject can help you to improve your knowledge about it. 

As an example, we could say that you need to know about blockchain. During your research path you come across a lot of nonsense and you see that it is a very confusing subject, difficult to get the concept into your head. Well, if you compile all the information that has helped you the most to understand what blockchain is and publish it (with sources included of course) either in text (blog), video (Youtube), audio (Podcast), you would do a favour to many people in the future who want to know about the subject.
Personally, I have had many experiences of finding compiled and understandable information and the truth is that it is much appreciated.

"""
Every opinion is valuable, even if you think it is nonsense, maybe it can be useful to someone else (obviously within limits).

Share and you will make the virtual world a better place.

Cybersecurity in Spain

  Currently, 93% of Spanish citizens use the Internet. This is why new projects are already appearing in order to increase cybersecurity as much as possible. In Spain there are two institutions created for cybersecurity under the name of INCIBE-CERT and CCN-CERT. The first one is focused on companies and citizens and the second one only for the government.  I think it is worth making a separation before analysing security in Spain: before and after the appearance of COVID.  Before the pandemic there was not so much concern about cybersecurity, which has affected us in the state of inferiority that we are currently in compared to the UK or Germany. There were a few projects going on but at the official conferences, most of the companies did not attend, they had their minds set on their own company's profit or other reasons. But what's the point of getting wealth when they can take it away from you in hours through malware. The key to Spain's focus on internet security was ...

USABILITY, ERGONOMICS AND HCI

  These three characteristics are key in the IT world. It is good to think about these aspects when developing an IT-related idea. Why? Most of the software that is popular and successful in our society like Windows, Facebook or Google, if you look at it, are developed from these features. Without these, it will be difficult to reach people, which I'm not saying it's impossible, but it's a disadvantage in your project. Let's look at two opposite examples, one that has been successful and a parallel one that has failed, obviously based on usability, ergonomics and human computer interaction. The example of a bad design, we would talk about Microsoft Bob.  A graphical environment running on Windows 3.1 or 95 turned the operating system into a room where each piece of furniture represented a different application. In addition, a dog named Rover acted as an assistant and gave users advice. It was a huge failure, partly due to the success of Windows 95 that same year. As we ...
