“…4-5). Anthropologists and sociologists maintain that privacy is a social construct that reflects the values and norms of individuals within cultures, meaning that the ways in which people conceptualize, locate, and practice privacy varies tremendously (Nippert-Eng, 2010). Altman's (1977) meta-analysis of ethnographic accounts of privacy found that while privacy is a culturally universal process, it manifests quite differently among different cultures.…”

While much attention is given to young people's online privacy practices on sites like Facebook, current theories of privacy fail to account for the ways in which social media alter practices of information-sharing and visibility. Traditional models of privacy are individualistic, but the realities of privacy reflect the location of individuals in contexts and networks. The affordances of social technologies, which enable people to share information about others, further preclude individual control over privacy. Despite this, social media technologies primarily follow technical models of privacy that presume individual information control. We argue that the dynamics of sites like Facebook have forced teens to alter their conceptions of privacy to account for the networked nature of social media. Drawing on their practices and experiences, we offer a model of networked privacy to explain how privacy is achieved in networked publics.

“…The last remaining "islands of privacy" are dissolving (Nippert-Eng 2010). This paper has shown that the effects of such "total surveillance" are not necessarily negative; they can also be prosocial and encourage altruism, volunteering, and social engagement.…”

1 BEING SEEN, BEING GOOD: HOW OBSERVATION INFLUENCES DRIVING HABITS DAN PODJEDThis article discusses how supervision and observation encourage altruism and prosocial behavior. It focuses on several types of observation: surveillance, sousveillance, peer-to-peer surveillance, and self-surveillance. These aspects are analyzed in greater detail in a case study of various approaches to encouraging eco-driving. Keywords: altruism, surveillance, observation, driving habitsAvtor v prispevku ugotavlja, kako nadzorovanje in opazovanje spodbujata altruizem in prosocialno vedenje. Posveti se različnim oblikam opazovanja, in sicer nadzoru od »zgoraj« in »spodaj«, vrstniškemu nadzoru in samonadzoru. Te vidike bolj podrobno obravnava na primeru različnih načinov za spodbujanje eko-vožnje.

“…They have been considered earlier from the sociological research point of view [4,21], but even this approach has been scarce, as pointed out by Buse and Twigg [4]. The findings in this area report that for many of their users, handbags are intensely personal and private [21]. There is little HCI research related to handbags, however the first design handbags employing a public display are already available [8].…”

As technology matures and its possibilities get more and more varied, there is also more room for thinking the user experience (UX) design, industrial design, and aesthetics of the computing form factors. The holistic user experience consists of a utilitarian and hedonic side [13]. While technology can respond to the call for pragmatic solutions for fulfilling different utilitarian user needs, UX design needs to focus also on hedonic aspects such as visual appearance, comfort of materials, or social function and engagement with the product. According to the principles of user centric design (UCD), it is important to gather background knowledge from the users when designing new technologies or novel applications in order to create end-products, which as both usable, acceptable, and desirable.In this paper, we report our work on a user centric approach on smart handbag design. We consider handbag as a potential novel form factor for mobile computing devices due its commonness in everyday life, its shape and size that allow easy technology integration, and its general wearability. Handbags are commonplace objects, which roughly half of the adult population, i.e. females, carry. Until now, handbags have been completely free from any interactive technology. In the following, we look at the possibilities for smart handbag design through a co-design approach. We introduce the findings of two studies, where feedback on the topic was gathered through different UCD and co-design methods, see Figure 1. ABSTRACTIn this paper, we explore design preferences and possibilities for smart handbags from the user perspective. We present designs and findings derived through a co-design process, which consisted of two studies; first with individual drawing based brainstorming (n=20), and second with two co-design workshops (n=10), where participants assessed different designs and features, and created low-fi prototypes of smart handbag concepts. Participants proposed large shape and style variations for smart handbags, according to the intended contexts, use cases, and lifestyle. In this respect the desire for modifiability, e.g. adapting in size and shape, was highlighted. The handbag's durability, weatherproofness and use of high quality materials were also raised.
