The Necessity of Equality

During my discussions with friends and a variety of people about equality, I always find it fascinating to listen and understand the different perspectives that people have with regards to the topic. Some people don’t believe in the importance of gender equality and believe that we should prescribe to our (traditional/societally imposed norms). Whereas, others believe what that equality is a growing problem of our time and needs to be addressed more within our society. All in all, along the spectrum you get so many different people who all view equality in different ways.

The OG Ticker: Bitcoin and Hard Forks

Bitcoin has recently hit a new all time high, shattering the $5,000 barrier climbing up to over $5800 before settling back in the $5500s. Only two months ago, bitcoin went through a fairly big hard fork, in which a second currency was created: Bitcoin Cash. If you held bitcoin before August 1st, then you technically also hold an equal number of bitcoin cash coins. Bitcoin Cash is an alternative currency, though, and does not share the same value nor market capitalization that bitcoin does.

Big Data & Privacy - Part 1

The use of internet browsing data to profile a possible customer facilitates instant appearance of Ads. It is a double-edged sword. The consumer does not have to go and search for what they need, rather everything they need is brought to their attention. On the other hand, it is also a constant bombardment of ads that may no longer be relevant, or just take up too much of your attention, when you are trying to do something else. This is the new reality in the age of digital transformation.

Harnessing the Power of Social Media

There are many enduring questions. The fast pace of life doesn’t give us a break to take a few steps back and to contemplate on those questions. Wisdom is disappearing from our lives; it is turning into quotes from highly successful people; those that have made it in monetary terms. The thicker their wallet, the greater the wisdom attributed to the hollow words they disseminate.

Master Social Media Engagement

Social media is all the buzz around...social media. Facebook has 2 billion monthly active users, and generates significant revenue from people browsing and interacting with content in a vertically scrollable list. A feed, so to speak, of posts and information. Realistically, Facebook is only the leader in this race, but there are many more participants.
