Study Notes

Online Platforms as Tools for ICT Content Development

  • Online platforms are used as tools for developing ICT content.

Types of Software Platforms

  • Technology platforms provide reusable building blocks or services for many products.
  • Innovation occurs when developers integrate these building blocks into their products, increasing platform adoption.

Amazon Web Services (AWS)

  • AWS is a widely used Microsoft cloud platform.
  • It offers reliable, scalable, and inexpensive cloud computing services.
  • Users only pay for the services they use.
  • Managing AWS can consume significant time resources, which can be efficiently allocated through expert services such as assessments, managed services, and migration.

Other Platform Types

  • Utility Platforms: Offer useful, typically free services. Once a critical mass of users is reached, the platform opens to other participants (like advertisers). Google Search is an example.
  • Interaction Networks: Facilitate interactions between people or businesses. Interactions take various forms (messages, voice calls, images), and are anchored to specific accounts. Examples include Facebook and WeChat.
  • Marketplaces: Enable transactions between buyers and sellers. Prices are determined by the supply side, and variety is a key factor for success. Examples include eBay and Amazon Marketplace, as well as local platforms like Lazada, Shopee and Zalora.
  • On-Demand Service Platforms: Deliver end-to-end services with independent service providers/contractors, differing significantly from marketplaces. Uber, Grab, Maxim, Lalamove and JnT are examples.
  • Content Crowdsourcing Platforms: Collect content from users (videos, blog posts, ratings, etc.) for a broader user base. YouTube and TripAdvisor are examples.
  • Data Harvesting Platforms: Offer a useful service to users and generate data through usage, with user data forming a key aspect of the platform. Waze is an example.
  • Content Distribution Platforms: Connect content owners to user touchpoints (websites, mobile apps) to deliver content or ads to users. Google AdSense, Outbrain and Millennial Media are examples.

Online Platforms

  • Presentation/Visualization: Tools for creating presentations, Prezi, Zoho, Slideshare, Mindmeister, and Powtoon are examples.
  • Cloud Computing: Remote server networks for data storage, management and processing instead of individual servers or computers. Google Drive, Evernote, Dropbox, iCloud and OneDrive are examples.
  • Advantages of Cloud Computing: No installation required; saves hard disk space; easy access from anywhere with internet connection; avoids software and additional hard drive costs; automatic updates; low system requirements; and easier backup and recovery.
  • Disadvantages of Cloud Computing: Slow internet speed can hamper performance; might need a compatible browser; doesn't own the software and may be subject to outages or security risks; and limited control over the infrastructure.
  • Social Media: Websites/online channels enabling users to create, co-create, discuss, and exchange user-generated content.
    • Types of Social Media: Social Networks; Bookmarking sites; Social News; Media Sharing; Microblogging; Blogs and Forums. Examples include Facebook, LinkedIn, Pinterest, YouTube, Twitter, and Blogger.
  • Blogging Platforms: Websites (WordPress, Tumblr, Blogger) that focus on content and design. These platforms often resemble newsletters with design options adaptable to users’ liking. Blogger, WordPress, TypePad, Tumblr, Wix, and Jimboo are examples.
  • Website Creation: Tools for creating websites like Wix, Weebly and Squarespace.
  • File Management: Online file converters for various file types and conversions (audio, video, documents, ebooks, archives). Zamzar, word2pdf, Keepvid.com, Online-convert.com, zamzar, word2pdf, Filehippo are listed.
