There are many ways for non-profits to use mobile technology. If you work at a nonprofit like me then you would surely have had an epiphany moment during the fundraising worldwide for Haiti after the 2010 earthquake. Mobile technology played a paramount role in receiving donations for the survivors in Haiti.
Many people working in non-profits still don’t realize the huge potential to use mobile technology to raise and receive donations. During the Haiti fund raising campaign over 40 million dollars in donations were received through mobile phones. As an example the Red Cross had received over 4 million premium text messages at a value of 10 each. The incredible fact is that 95 percent of these premium text messages were from first time donors.
This is amazing to say the least.

No Warrant Needed

It seems that cell phones contain more and more personal information with each passing day and unfortunately, a lot of it might not be the type of information one would want to land in the lap of law enforcement (note: the impending laws concerning “sexting“). But if you have been under the impression that your cell phone and its contents are personal property and as such exempt from police search without a corresponding search warrant, it seems that California is leading the way to change such impressions. On January 3, 2011 the Supreme Court of California granted police officers in that state the right to search a suspect’s cell phone without a warrant. Prior to this ruling (and in accordance with the fourth amendment) police were only allowed to search suspects for disclosed weapons without a warrant. The court ruled that police have the right to examine items they seize, which can range from text messages to app history to websites that have been browsed. We can see how this information might be relevant, pertinent, and time sensitive in crime control imagine if the police have someone they suspect of predatory sexual child abuse and are able to intervene in the act by intercepting text messages. Another point is that valuable evidence in the course of prosecution can be/might be erased by the suspect between the time of the investigation and the actual issuance of a warrant. But then of course there are augments against the ruling citing the fact that a warrant must be issued to seize and search a computer, so why should a cell phone be different? So yes, the jury of public opinion might be undecided at this juncture, but the mere fact that the California Supreme Court has taken a definitive stance might be worth noting for those who have embarrassing (or worse) information stored in their cell phones. Technology marches forward, and so do the courts, it seems.

From Whence You Came

Sometimes in order to best understand where you’re going you have to understand from where you came. So it’s true when it comes to telephone technology. There’s a huge population segment walking around today that has never (that would mean: not ever) had to use a rotary dial phone. And with that there’s also probably a portion of that population segment that doesn’t even know what a rotary dial phone looks like. That’s why we’ve compiled the following list of some movie titles you may want to investigate for either a little reminiscing (should you actually have used a rotary dial phone) or a research project (should you have not). White Heat The Reluctant Astronaut LisaBells Are Ringing Three Stooges Movies Laurel and Hardy Movies Fingerprints Don’t LieThe Glass Bottom Boat The BirdsThe Russians Are Coming The Maltese Falcon And you know there’s more.a lot more. But these few are mentioned to not only get you started, but to maybe also whet your appetite to go “phone spotting” whenever possible. It can be a lot of fun, and maybe even border on an addiction. Kind of like texting.

Books: Smart Card

For those of you who still prefer to get your information “the old fashioned way,” here’s a selection of reading material that you can enjoy in the comfort of your bed before nodding off to sleep and dreaming of smart cards.Smart Card Applications: Design Models for Using and Programming Smart Cards (Wolfgang Rankl) provides generic solutions for programming smart cards, enabling the creation of working applications and systems. The book presents a comprehensive introduction to the topic of smart cards, explaining component elements and the smart card microcontrollers; sets out information on operating systems with case studies of a range of applications including credit card security, mobile phones and transport payment cards; gives detailed advice on the monitoring of smart card applications, recognizing potential attacks on security and improving system integrity; provides modules and examples so that all types of systems can be built up from a small number of individual components; and offers guidelines on avoiding and overcoming design errors. Ideal for practicing engineers and designers looking to implement smart cards in their business, it is also a valuable reference for postgraduate students taking courses on embedded system and smart card design.Smart Card Handbook ( Wolfgang Rankl) is considered “the most comprehensive book on state-of-the-art smart card technology.” It includes international standards and specifications as well as sub-chapters that cover near field communication (NFC), single wire protocol (SWP), and multi megabyte smart cards (microcontroller with NAND-Flash). There are also extensive revisions to chapters on smart card production, the security of smart cards (including coverage of new attacks and protection methods), and contactless card data transmission (ISO/IEC 10536, ISO/IEC 14443, ISO/IEC 15693). The book is firmly established as the definitive reference to every aspect of smart card technology, proving an invaluable resource for security systems development engineers. Professionals and microchip designers working in the smart card industry will continue to benefit from this essential guide and the book is also ideal for newcomers to the field.Smart Cards (Telecommunications Library) (Jose Luis Zoreda, Jose Manuel Oton) presents a thorough overview of the evolution of smart cards and a range of their emerging applications. It discusses in detail the state-of-the-art, design and programming, and the authors advise on how to choose a card by showing each step involved in implementation and practical use. This overview is intended for technical and non-technical managers.Smart Cards: The Developer’s Toolkit (Timothy M. Jurgensen, Scott B. Guthery) is great for decision-makers, product managers, developers, and integrators. Covers all you need to know to plan, design, develop, and deploy advanced multi-application smart card environments. The authors present case studies from today’s most advanced smart card deployments, covering both the logistics of initial deployment and best practices for supporting ongoing operations and card populations. Whether you’re an IT manager, corporate security officer, product manager, developer, or integrator, Smart Cards: A Developer’s Toolkit gives you a powerful new weapon for protecting your digital assets.
