With nearly 700 miles of pristine beaches and the home of the beloved Anne of Green Gables books by Lucy Maud Montgomery, Prince Edward Island has long been a sought-after destination for families. Canada's smallest province is also known as the country's food island, boasting 600,000 acres of farmland, which also yields a mighty number of hands-on experiences for families that include farm visits, animal interaction, oyster shucking, and even cooking classes.

Island Hill Farms

Locally known as one of the cutest places on earth,Island Hill Farms in Hampshire is home to roosters, alpacas, miniature donkeys, bunnies, and more. The farm also hosts nine different varieties of goat, who wear knitted sweaters when it's cold and often snuggle up to visitors. Families can catch a glimpse into life on a farm and learn about the importance of farming, animals, sustainability, and supporting local communities. There's also a local store filled with fresh products, including homemade soaps from the goat milk produced on the property. The farm is open daily, the entrance fee is $10 per person and $6.50 per child (2-4-years old).

Dr. Dawn Beyer to Speak at Women in CyberSecurity Conference

The Women in CyberSecurity (WiCyS) conference, March 28 to 30, in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, is highlighting the impact of females in the field with help from five esteemed speakers. One of those five keynotes includes Dr. Dawn Beyer, Senior Fellow at Lockheed Martin. Read here.

Beyer will discuss "The Art of Cutting Glass," on Saturday, March 30. She will share her unconventional path to becoming a highly coveted Senior Fellow, which is recognized as the most experienced, successful, technical, elite group in a corporation. The chances of becoming a vice president of a large corporation are greater than becoming a Senior Fellow. This is the highest level of excellence in the individual contributor technical career path.

At Lockheed Martin, she is the Cyber Fellows Action Team chair. She engages in industry exchanges while co-chairing the National Defense Industrial Association Cybersecurity Division. In her over 29 years of experience, Beyer has covered information security, security engineering, systems engineering, risk assessments, policy development and execution, information assurance, military intelligence and operations, cybersecurity and strategy. She provides consultation for research and development, proposal programs, and operations and maintenance teams. She also mentors, trains and leads engineers.

Beyer has her Ph.D., M.S. and B.S. In Information Systems. She is a retired Air Force Intelligence Officer with 24 years of service, which included systems security manager, computer systems security officer, communications security manager, operations security manager and emissions security manager. Beyer is a member of the INCOSE Systems Security Engineering Working Group.

WiCyS is a unique conference that focuses on recruiting, retaining, inspiring and advancing women in cybersecurity careers while also including students, educators, industry, government, military and research organizations.

Web Design Company, Lounge Lizard, discusses 4 Ways AI has Revolutionized Mobile Marketing

Lounge Lizard is globally recognized as a top New York Digital Marketing Company within the web design and development industry. Lounge Lizard's brandtenders are creative, tech-savvy, and passionate in developing innovative strategies that drive conversion for both startup and established clients of all industries, making them the "best of breed since 1998."

The rise of artificial intelligence (AI) within the business world has created many changes in how certain aspects of business are performed and nowhere is that more apparent than in mobile marketing. AI offers the opportunity for a marketing plan to be actively data-driven rather than reactive, and in the mobile world where real-time responses matter the inclusion of AI allows instant analysis for historical and current behaviors to instantly provide the best user experience. Today the New York Digital Marketing Firm, Lounge Lizard, discusses 4 Ways AI has Revolutionized Mobile Marketing.

In each instance, the power of artificial intelligence allows for almost instant data analysis and actionable responses along with anticipation based on behavior patterns:

Optimized content delivery – Consumers are typically overwhelmed with data. The options for obtaining information has increased each year and because of this data-overload the average attention span has steadily decreased. That makes optimizing content delivery more important than ever to not only put content in front of customers at the right time but also grab their attention within just a few seconds. AI can analyze behavior trends, usage patterns, and preferences to provide valuable insights on the proper timing depending on the demographic and channel to send push notifications, post to social media, send an email, or release a newsletter.

Intelligent targeting of ads – Facebook and Google already use AI within their ad programs because it allows for a more intelligent targeting of ads to consumers. Of course, occasionally there will be a complete miss, but for the most part the targeting is very effective at predicting behavior based on the data available. AI is useful in better understanding of an audience and predicted behavior, defining the ad objective, reaching the audience, and providing on demand delivery. Amazon uses sophisticated AI for their related products. Spotify uses AI for music recommendations. This allows delivery of relevant, more personalized suggestions that are more likely to convert in milliseconds without the need for human supervision or interaction, which would just slow the process and its' effectiveness down.

Content creation – Somewhat surprisingly AI can be useful in content creation. The creative process isn't always seamless and sometimes ideas for content are not pouring out of the human brain as often as original content is needed for marketing. AI provides shortcuts to the process by adding algorithms which can analyze considerable amounts of data to better define parameters for compelling content. Finding popular topics without substantial amounts of content already created, optimizing email subject lines, and personalizing push notification titles are just a few ways AI is being used to improve the content creation process with the click of a button.

Lounge Lizard New York Web Development Company is an award-winning, high-end design boutique specializing in website and mobile app development, UX/UI, branding, and marketing. Lounge Lizard excels in creating the ultimate brand strategy, fully loaded with expertly crafted visuals that work together to increase sales and effectively communicate a client's unique personality.
