>             Project: Apache Drill
>          Issue Type: Bug
>            Reporter: Cheryl Valentine
>            Priority: Major
>
> As meetings continue to morph into readily accessible formats (face to face, 
> video streaming, Skype, mobile apps) for all types of participants we are 
> looking more towards technology to build engagement and interest for our 
> meetings.
> It is evident that our new model for meetings in the next decade as we head 
> towards the year 2020 will comprise of face to face, virtual via live 
> streaming, post meeting access via mobile technology and social connections 
> pre-meetings and post meetings.
> We cannot discuss technology and meetings without seeing who is doing 'what' 
> with technology and then look at how to use the technology that we all have 
> access to increase participation and relevancy of our meetings.
> According to New Media Trend Watch 2011, Gen Y's comprise nearly a quarter of 
> the total US population, and are evenly split between males and females. Less 
> than six in ten are caucasian, and aside from children under 18, Gen Y's are 
> the most ethnically and racially diverse generation in the country's history.
> Virtually all members of this age group are online, and nearly as many are 
> social network users. Gen Y's are ahead of the curve by almost any digital 
> metric: online video viewing, mobile internet usage, mobile commerce, and 
> location-based services.
> Key numbers - US consumers aged 18-34:
> - Internet users: 91% of population in 2011 / 94% by 2015
> - Social network users: 86% of internet users in 2011 / 89% by 2013
> - Online video viewers: 84% of internet users in 2011 / 90% by 2015
> - Mobile internet users: 62% of mobile phone users by 2011 / 76% by 2015
> For the rest of the population research shows that Gen X and early boomers 
> are increasing their use of tablets such as IPads to access Internet and are 
> integrating mobile web browsing albeit at a bit of a slower adoption rate 
> than the Gen Y's.
> So here's what we can acknowledge almost every person who attends meetings 
> will have a smart phone such as an IPhone, Android or Blackberry. We can also 
> assume that they are using their device to text, browse the web, email and 
> instant message.
> If we know that we already have access to these items how can we use them to 
> increase connection and participation in meetings?
> Here are a few ways we can use the tools we already have:
> 1. Build your own proprietary social network hub either through Facebook or 
> use a service such as I-Meet to connect with others specifically within your 
> industry or also those who will be specifically attending the meeting.
> 2. Create an app for your meeting with a game component- a meeting planner I 
> worked with recently created an Amazing Race for all participants where all 
> clues were by text and part of the tasks involved using the smart phones to 
> find out answers.
> 3. Request your speakers to use technology to increase participation in their 
> sessions. Text to screen technology such as Wiffitti allows participants to 
> engage with the content from the speaker, ask questions and become part of 
> the program.
> 4. Every smart phone has video 
> *[merucari|https://complextime.com/mercari-what-makes-it-the-best-marketplace/]*
>  capability- create a contest for participants in the meeting to capture 
> their best photos of activities during the conference and then get them to 
> message the photo to a central text number- those photos are then uploaded 
> and shared towards the end of the conference and a prize given to the best 
> photos.
> 5. This next idea will depend on your privacy guidelines but in addition to 
> publishing email contacts for those attending the conference gather and 
> publish their cell phone numbers so that attendees can text each other during 
> the conference but also for follow up marketing after the conference.
> 6. Create a central portal for requests that can be texted to all registered 
> attendees at the meeting. Call it a 'request line' and basically it is a 
> dedicated text number where people can make specific requests and those 
> requests are mass texted to all attendees for an answer.
