Last updates report that the price was between $55 and $60 million, in a mix of stock and cash. Thanks to this acquisition Facebook will have the possibility to finally include and improve mobile tagging for photos leveraging on biometrics technologies.</div>
<div style="font-family: helvetica, arial, clean, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px; margin-bottom: 12.5px; margin-top: 12.5px; padding: 0px; text-align: left;">
Face.com was funded five years ago and it is specialized in mobile facial recogition. Its technlogy could allow users to upload photos to their Facebook profile on the go, instantly receive suggestions of whom to tag, and confirm the tags with one click.</div>
<div style="font-family: helvetica, arial, clean, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px; margin-bottom: 12.5px; margin-top: 12.5px; padding: 0px; text-align: left;">
The importance of this is related to the traffic on Facebook. By increasing the number of tags through mobile tagging Facebook will increase the engagement of users: once a user receives the notification that he has been tagged in a photo, he will probably go to Facebook and check it, incresing the number of visits and the traffic on the site.</div>
<div style="font-family: helvetica, arial, clean, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 20px; margin-bottom: 12.5px; margin-top: 12.5px; padding: 0px; text-align: left;">
<span style="background-color: white;">It is clear that, after the $1 billion Instagram acquisition, Facebook is targeting mobile photos and the network of users which share them, creating a complete platform to win in the market of mobile photos.</span></div>Diego Meneghettihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06935607315022306262noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6729291184960627517.post-91354387721407784462012-06-11T08:28:00.001+02:002012-06-11T08:28:29.954+02:00<span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">A8SRX3N2HKBG</span>Robertohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17821504340203115622noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6729291184960627517.post-19919833470389687342012-06-06T13:15:00.003+02:002012-06-06T13:15:47.185+02:00<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: -webkit-auto;">My peers
are inside MBA routine. And most of us need to split our time (that is not
extendable – Oh God – only 24 hours per day) into studies, sleep and </span><s style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: -webkit-auto;">partying
</s><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: -webkit-auto;">networking. And according to previous intakes usually a student can do only
two out of these three.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I tried
several ways of sleeping less and tried several ways to adapt my sleeping
patterns to my MBA rhythm. For instance,
going to sleep earlier yesterday so that to wake up at 3 am today. Pros: higher
concentration, same 5-6 hours of night sleep, more balanced sleep time between
sundown and sunrise, none calling or whatsapping you, you start your sleep
yesterday and not today.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Of course
this is just one case out of other considerations on how to sleep less or how
to sleep more optimally. I needed to go further to explore some assisting
techniques and devices.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Back in
Russia I used a light alarm-clock that gradually ignites a powerful lamp next
to your bad and launches some sounds of nature. In Russia, where winter nights
are long and where I drive to work and back home in the dark, this works well.
But here in Spain this does not really contribute to my perfect sleep as I have
enough natural sun.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">I also
tried so-called positive way of thinking (my peers may remember how I
referenced to Napoleon Hill). Apart from Hill, there are books of Luiza Hey if
I correctly recall the author’s name. The whole concept is concentrated on
positive thinking, doing morning exercises and similar activities. In total
this complex can save you around 2 hours of sleep per day (due to the fact that
you use sleep to refresh and not to cure the stress you gained during the last
day. By the way, I do not recommend to rush following Hill blindly – first read
the abovementioned authors – they are rather inspiring [probably not like me
here]. But their recommendations really work for me and a bunch of my friends .
Maybe not 2 hours, but still an hour is ok. 2 hrs*365 days=730 hrs.
730hrs/24hrs per day = 30,41 days won per year!!!<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> Approximately a year ago I found that there is
an alarm-clock that measures your phases of the sleep and wakes you when you

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">A sensor
distinguishes the sleep phases through your body’s movements. Within 30 minutes
of the set waking time aXbo wakes us with pleasant waking sounds from an
almostawake-moment. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The unique
wake-up-algorithm of aXbo chooses the optimal wake up time through
differentiating the various sleeping phases by tracking the body movements. It thus determines the optimal wake up time.
Your movements are detected and gathered with a comfortable towelling wristband
and submitted to the sleep phase alarm clock. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">You set
your new aXbo as usual to your wake up time e.g. 7.00 a.m. The best wake up
window is 30 minutes; e.g. you might be woken up at 6.47 a.m.-your optimal wake
up time. Thus aXbo even gives you a little extra time.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Seems to me
that business schools could have a wholesale contract with the company
producing aXbo and make a present to the students in the opening ceremony day
like we had in Segovia.</span><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="background-color: white; color: #29aae1; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 18px; text-align: -webkit-auto;">BioTime. Work time registering and ERP</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small; text-align: justify;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: justify;">Usually
Russia does not promote itself too much on the world arena and limited news is
available on local technical advancements.
Luckily for me I found a list of ways of application of Biometrics
technologies in my homeland country. </span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Nowdays
presence of such technologies does not mean that any country is champion in
innovation as it is not a complicated process to order and to buy. Nowdays
Biometrics is already in use in many African countries which overall economic development
is questionable. So let me use Russia as an example how biometrics can be used
in standard city life.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Of course
such an intro is not about any kind of technological leadership. Technologies
are delivered by world’s leaders and their structure of ownership is not always
transparent. The countries which apply modern technologies just need to reserve
some amounts in their budgets. So my example of Russia serves here as a base
for explanation of another application of Biometrics.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">During 2012
several Russian companies reported on successful application or optimization of
human resource management systems in different regions of Russia including
clinics. The common idea comes from application of biometrics technologies
integrated in the HR-module of the ERP system. Let’s take the example of
Anturium clinic located in Altai region of Russia.</span><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Nowdays the
employees of the clinic are met by the terminals BioLink FingerPass. Touching
the scanner at the terminal the system registers the time of arrival of the
employee. The terminals translate the data through the time-registering module
BioTime which in its turn generates 13 different reports. The clinic deals with
aesthetic surgery and surrogacy which means that apart from registering working
hours the system needs to signal if a surgeon stayed too long at work. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">BioTime module
facilitates maintenance of the salary and personal taxes module. As an
additional advantage, some businesses can back-up their choice to turn to
outsourced specialists or correct schedules of employees according to their
biorhythms. By the way, in case one
finger is damaged another “reserve” finger can be used for identification. The
implementation projects usually have multi finger option for authorization.

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Terrorism is a big threat for the
Countries all around the world. Since 9/11 there have been continuous
improvements in security systems to avoid terrorist attacks. In USA the focus
has been shifted from international to domestic threats and from identifying
culpable people to preventing them to commit crimes.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">In the last years US Department
of Homeland Security has been testing and implementing several techniques to
detect ‘pre-crime’ indicators. For example the <i>FAST</i> (<i>Future attribute screening
technology</i>) is a program able to spot people willing to commit a terrorist act. This system measures:
hearth and respiration rates, changes in human voice, eyes movements, facial
expressions and body movements.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So… it seems that, thanks to
these technologies, in the future we will be safer than ever: crimes will be
stopped before damaging anyone and even fear of being pre-detected might block
criminals from acting.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">But, what about privacy? What
about people nervous in the airport simply because they do not like flying?
What about the right of walking down a street without being continuously

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Does crime prevention have a
limit? Are these technologies completely reliable? To combat crime and
terrorism, shouldn’t we focus more on the educational side rather than on these
methods based on fear and intrusiveness?<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<li><span style="font-size: 10pt; line-height: 115%; text-indent: -0.25in;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Punjab
National Bank installed its first Biometric at ATM at a village in Gautam Budh
Nagar, India. This has helped lot of illiterate and semi-literate people to do
banking transaction any time.</span></span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; line-height: 115%; text-indent: -0.25in;">Union
Bank of India launched Bio Metric Cards. With the help of these cards, lot of
small households and traders can avail credit.</span></li>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 10pt; line-height: 115%;">Bio Metric Technology is helping organizations not only to
secure their data but also used in sophisticated IT applications. Not only in
organizations but, Bio Metric technology is also being used by government to verify
the authenticity of its citizens. One Such example is India.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

Identification of every citizen in India and issuance of Unique Identification
card. </span><span style="background-color: white; color: black; font-size: 10pt; line-height: 115%;">Aadhaar
is a 12-digit unique number which the Unique Identification Authority of India

popularculture for about 100 years, and they have served as premonitory tools
forupcoming technologies, we couldn’t live aside this topic when
discussingbiometrics. <o:p></o:p></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It is quite easy to find examples of movies that appeal
tothis technology. In action films,
wefind innumerous scenes where the main character has to break in a
highsurveillance facility where access is given only through voice recognition, iris
scanning,fingerprint match etc. A good
way toillustrate how films recreate the difficulties and creativity required to
tricksystems that use these technologies is this short episode from the last
versionof Charlie’s Angels.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">There is no doubt that biometrics is perceived as one of
themost secure ways of controlling access.
InMission Impossible III, when Agent Ethan Hung is assigned to a new
mission, hisidentity is first validated with an eye scanner installed in a pair
of sunglasses. <o:p></o:p></span><br />

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">However there is one movie in particular that recreates
howbiometrics technology can be used for other purposes beyond security. In Minority Report, Speilberg conceived
aworld where personalized advertising is possible using this technology. Your tastes and consumer behaviours, based
onyour historical buying patterns can be saved as data and later processed
tohelp companies identify you as consumer target. In the movie there is a scene where
JohnAnderton (Tom Cruise) walks into a mall, where he is recognized through
irisscan by animated billboards encouraging him to buy some products. Follow this link to watch the scene in
themall. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">When we watch these futuristic movies, we cannot helpraising
the same question from the previous post, are humans willing to give upon
privacy for the sake of comfort and technology advances? Or is it no longer
achoice, as "the rightof privacy is
a diminishing commodity" which will soon be thrown"right out the
window”</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Biometrics has somehow decreased its boom since the peak relevance gained on security issues; need less to say on terrorism. We find all types of infringement when it comes to safety and security measures that there are always new introduction of technological developments to mitigate such high risk. However, technology in this respect, instead of simplifying our lives, they become literally a burden to carry on us, whether it is the in the form of passwords in our memory, physically carrying more cards or articles in our pockets, or both. The problem is that when it involves more articles, at the same time we find to have the need to safeguard them in another place, e.g. a safe box that will have again a password and/or a key.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 10pt;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Biometrics could gain again more importance to effectively solve this problem. It has placed and showed its uses of authentication applicable to a commercially viable technology. Perhaps not the best example for its closure, but Pay By Touch, a company founded in 2002 and liquidated in 2008, was one of the pioneers specialized in the use of biometrics to pay at a store.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The point in question now comes to why there are not more that many companies emerge towards this business opportunity? </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It actually involves other industries including a powerful one (banks), which will be present in every transaction.</span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Is it perhaps that the problem relies in the adoption of us as customers knowing that our identities can be revealed furthermore?</span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Maybe it is a facet that we are not willing to give up, no matter how easier and “safer” it would make our world, knowing that I would not trust my biological traits to a third party for commercial uses.</span></div>Robertohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17821504340203115622noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6729291184960627517.post-61709347750471268052012-04-20T22:58:00.000+02:002012-04-30T00:07:04.274+02:00Biometrics Rise<br />

Iam sure you already figured what the topic of our discussion will be in the forthcoming months. We are a bunch of MBA students studying at Instituto de Empresa in Madrid and frankly we are having the best time of our professional lives, so decided to share a piece of this experience with you. </div>

Lets kick off the discussion! I am sure you remember September 11, 2001?</div>

In the history of Biometrics technology we see this date to be a major turning point. Please follow the link to access a video which is pretty self explanatory as to what we mean: <span style="border-collapse: collapse; color: #500050; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;"><u><span style="color: #3333ff;"><a href="http://www.biometrics.gov/default.aspx" style="color: #1155cc;" target="_blank">http://www.biometrics.<wbr></wbr>gov/default.aspx</a></span></u></span></div>

<div style="border-collapse: collapse; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
Having watched the video, would you have thought, that Biometrics is not a 20th century phenomenon? Believe it or not its application goes way back to the caves. </div>
<div style="border-collapse: collapse; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
The oldest recording of the use of Biometrics was discovered in a cave located in France, the handprint is ought to be 32,000 years old.</div>

<span style="color: #333333;">In the 14th century merchants in China used fingerprints to settle transactions and applied fingerprints and footprints recognition to distinguish between children. By the mid 1800s as a consequence of the industrial evolution the clear need to identify people arised. The basic concepts of justice was developed by courts and thinkers of this period; which created a need for a formal justice system. The first two methods were the </span></div>
