All you Boston IT consultants out there! If you are free on May 11th, check out the IT event titled “Future of the Web and Search: An Evening with Microsoft Online Services Division President Qi Lu”. The event will talk about the future of the internet and the IT services that can be utilized on the web. Check out the description below.
No one doubts that we have only scratched the surface of what is possible with the Web. The day is coming fast where the Web will become almost a virtual mind reader. Your intent, interests, and needs will be instantly perceived and the information you really want will be delivered-whether you asked for it directly or not-based on a deep understanding of the meanings of words in your query, knowledge of your patterns and preferences, what others have done before you, your location, and more.
Microsoft is one of the world’s major players in creating the future of the Web-and growing fast in influence behind its Bing search engine and decades of research into data mining, semantic search, information retrieval, and human-computer interfaces. Please join us for an evening with Microsoft’s online services division president Qi Lu, the chief force behind Bing, online advertising, and other Internet initiatives, and the shepherd of the company’s “quest to enable people everywhere to gain knowledge and creativity from the Web by computationally understanding user intent and matching that with published content, advertising offerings, and software services.”
Where is the Web heading, and how will Microsoft help shape it? How will search itself be transformed to align to this new Web? In this rare appearance, Dr. Lu will lay out some specifics behind Microsoft’s vision to “empower people with knowledge.” He will then sit down with Xconomy Boston’s Editor Greg Huang (himself a Ph.D. in computer science) and field questions from you—the users and shapers of the future of the Web.”
If you are in the Boston area, this IT service seminar might be interesting and could help your small business run faster.
