SxSW 2014 – my proposed Social Identity session needs your votes!


Tags :


I have submitted my Social Identity – Public, Personal and Private for a session at SxSW 2014. Of course I need your votes to make this happen!!

Social Identity in the world


Here is the excerpt on the session:
As you use more social networking sites, your social identity becomes a blend of publicly shared and personal information.
Based on the upcoming book, see firsthand how innocuous things you share can be used to gain access to your private data and learn tricks to block those attempts.
We will explore the different levels of information and how to segregate the data. Learn techniques to isolate your private banking, credit card and health information, while still feeling comfortable sharing on public and personal sites.
By splitting how you participate in the online world of social networks, communities and even online finance you build a virtual wall.
We will also discuss the creation of a private and also a fake persona to help strengthen the barrier of your private identity and prevent identity theft.

I just presented a version of this last week at MWLUG and a smaller version in Australia.  The book is coming along nicely to coincide with the session and is on track to be ready by year end.

 What I ask of you is to go vote at SxSW (registration required to stop the spammers) and share this to your followers if you think it would be of interest to them too.
