Graduating master's student, Daniel Upton, presented The Identity Share Project which "approaches the online social network from a new angle." The project is a web-based system that allows users to create and share a profile, to browse others' profiles, and to follow their online experiences.

Upton was mentored by Assistant Professor Carl DiSalvo.
