| Abstract | The latest development in the concept of Mobile Presence within the mobile industry and HCI/UI community has promised yet another drastic change in the way we communicate with one other and lead our every-day lives. When Presence was limited to the Instant Messaging (IM) space, users could only know the status of others while they were at the computer (e.g. busy, away, etc). In contrast, mobile devices can be carried around at any time with their owner, so this discreet method of communicating is taking an interesting turn. Mobile Presence is much more ambitious: it could let others know your preferred method of communication based on your device's offerings (e.g. SMS, voice call, IM, video telephony, or even Push-to-Talk), alert you to where your friends are located at this moment, sense what mood others are in (thus whether it's appropriate to contact them at all), or even allow you to view a video clip broadcasting someone's profile before you attempt to contact them. In a perfect world, Presence will guarantee the most timely, convenient and appropriate communication at anytime, anywhere, to anyone in your "buddy list." But what's behind all these promises? Do you feel creepy being watched by others even if they are your friends and family? What if the government or any kind of "Big Brother" can easily sneak a look at presence information? Where do we see the fine line between the benefits of presence and invasion of privacy? How can we in the Mobile HCI community help shaping the future of Mobile Presence? In this panel, we discuss the factors to be considered for the design of mobile presence. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
