Other fonts include Sans and Typewriter from Donald Knuth’s Computer Modern family. Typographical decisions were based on the recommendations given in Ce lements of Bypographic >tyle by Bringhurst(óþþ¦). e use of sidenotes instead of footnotes and gures spanning both the textblock and fore-edge margin was inspired by eautiful vidence by Tue(óþþä). e guidelines found in Ce Oisual isplay of :uantitative nformation by Tue(óþþÕ) were followed when creating diagrams and tables. Colors used in diagrams and gures were inspired by the >ummer ields color scheme found at http://www.colourlovers.com/palette/399372 a ABSTRACT Social navigation usage on the Social Web were studied by conducting content analyzes to see how prevalent such navigation is now compared to the Web’s earlier years. e common characteristic of the types of social navigation we found in these sites were the reliance on peers for the information used in the navigation process. We therefore built on existing denitions of social navigation an provided our own deni- tion which emphasized the essentialness of peers in the web site one is navigating in. We found activity streams – chronological listings of what all the individuals one is particularly interested in have recently been doing on a web site – to be an interesting and seemingly useful technique of social navigation. A prototype of activity streams were built on top of the Urørt web site to test the usefulness of such a social navigation technique in a real world two-group experiment with a pre-post setup. e experiment results were somewhat inconclusive, partly because of high non-accomplishment rates and some ambiguous results. e high non-accomplishment rates seemed to have a strong connection to the technical prototype plattform we used as participants had a hard time trying to install the necessary soware. i CONTENTS Abstracti Contents iii List of Figuresv List of Tables vi Preface vii Õ IntroductionÕ Õ.Õ FocusÕ Õ.ó Motivationó Õ.ì Objectiveì Õ.¦ Contributionsì Õ.¢ Outline¦ Social Navigation on the Social Web ó Introducing Social Navigationß ó.Õ Literature Searchß ó.ó Navigation ó.ì SocialityÉ ó.¦ Social Navigation Õì ó.¢ Forms of Social Navigation Õä ó.ä Is Social Navigation Valuable? ìþ ì Social Navigation on Flickr & Facebook ìì ì.Õ Method ìì ì.ó Results ìß ì.ì Discussion ¦ì ì.¦ Generalizability and Validity ¦¦ Unobtrusive Prototyping of Social Navigation ¦ Implementation of an Unobtrusive Prototype ¦ß ¦.Õ Building on Top of the Web ¦ß iii ¦.ó Design ¦ ¦.ì Process ¢¦ ¦.¦ Architecture ¢ä ¦.¢ Performance ä¢ ¦.ä Source Code ä¢ ¢ Empirical Study of a Social Navigation Prototype äß ¢.Õ Research Problems and Hypotheses äß ¢.ó Method äÉ ¢.ì Results ßä ¢.¦ Discussion ¢.¢ Generalizability and Validity Éä Summary ä Conclusion ÕþÕ ä.Õ Lessons Learnt ÕþÕ ä.ó Future Work Õþó Bibliography Õþ¢ Appendices A Content Inventory Õó¢ A.Õ Flickr Õó¢ A.ó Facebook ÕìÕ B Selection of ird Party Soware Õ¦Õ B.Õ Prototype Soware Stack Õ¦Õ B.ó Development Tools Õ¢ì C Questionnaires Õ¢ß C.Õ Pretest Survey Õ¢ß C.ó Follow-up Survey Õ¢ C.ì Posttest Survey Õ¢ D Source Code ÕäÕ D.Õ Unobtrusive Social Navigation Prototype for Urørt ÕäÕ D.ó Reddit Collaborative Filtering Algorithm ÕäÕ D.ì JavaScript Comment Stripper Õäó D.¦ Shell File and Directory Hierarchy Õäó iv LISTOFFIGURES ó.Õ Blogroll Õß ó.ó Research Journal Tag Cloud óþ ó.ì Trailre Trail óì ó.¦ Collaborative Filtering at Reddit ó¢ ó.¢ Recommendations at Amazon ó ó.ä CoWeb Contextual Cues óÉ ó.ß CoWeb Global Cues óÉ ó. virtPresenter Timeline ìþ ì.Õ Flickr Welcome Page ìä ì.ó Flickr Photo Detail Page ìä ì.ì Flickr Photo Meta-data ìß ì.¦ Flickr Tag Cloud ì ì.¢ Flickr Tag Cluster ìÉ ì.ä Flickr Geotagging ¦þ ì.ß Facebook News Feed ¦Õ ì.

Its ubiquitous nature and technical strengths, in particular the flexible hypermedia document format and the general communication protocol, have given users a powerful infrastructure for sharing knowledge as well as for interactive communication. This has created new research questions with respect to how people conceptualize the Web, and how the use of this medium is embedded in their professional activities.

Trant, University of Toronto / Archives & Museum Informatics 158 Lee Ave, Toronto, ON Canada M4E 2P3 jtrant [at] archimuse.com Abstract This paper reviews research into social tagging and folksonomy (as reflected in about 180 sources published through December 2007). Methods of researching the contribution of social tagging and folksonomy are described, and outstanding research questions are presented. This is a new area of research, where theoretical perspectives and relevant research methods are only now being defined. This paper provides a framework for the study of folksonomy, tagging and social tagging systems. Three broad approaches are identified, focusing first, on the folksonomy itself (and the role of tags in indexing and retrieval); secondly, on tagging (and the behaviour of users); and thirdly, on the nature of social tagging systems (as socio-technical frameworks). Keywords: Social tagging, folksonomy, tagging, literature review, research review 1. Introduction User-generated keywords – tags – have been suggested as a lightweight way of enhancing descriptions of on-line information resources, and improving their access through broader indexing. “Social Tagging” refers to the practice of publicly labeling or categorizing resources in a shared, on-line environment.

Social Navigation and Local Folksonomies: Technical and Design Considerations for a Mobile Information System Mark Bilandzic Center for Digital Technology and Management, Technische Universität München, Germany [email protected] Marcus Foth Creative Industries, Queensland University of Technology, Australia [email protected] Abstract Web services such as wikis, blogs, podcasting, file sharing and social networking are frequently referred to by the term Web 2.0. The innovation of these services lies in their ability to enable an increasing number of users to actively participate on the Internet by creating and sharing their own content and help develop a collective intelligence. In this paper we discuss how we use Web 2.0 techniques such as ‘folksonomy’ and ‘geo-tagging’ in a mobile information system to collect and harness the everyday connections and local knowledge of urban residents in order to support their social navigation practices. 1 Introduction Our physical world holds certain characteristics that enable us to interpret what other people have done, how they behaved, and where they have travelled.

    Saila Ovaska and Juha Leino A Survey on Web 2.0 DEPARTMENT OF COMPUTER SCIENCES UNIVERSITY OF TAMPERE D‐2008‐5 TAMPERE 2008 UNIVERSITY OF TAMPERE DEPARTMENT OF COMPUTER SCIENCES SERIES OF PUBLICATIONS D – NET PUBLICATIONS D‐2008‐5, JUNE 2008 Saila Ovaska and Juha Leino A Survey on Web 2.0 DEPARTMENT OF COMPUTER SCIENCES FIN‐33014 UNIVERSITY OF TAMPERE ISBN 978‐951‐44‐7389‐0 ISSN 1795‐4274 Abstract Today’s Internet is a far cry from the network of academic sharing as which it began. From the ruins of the dot-com bubble has risen a brave new Internet that O’Reilly has named Web 2.0 while others prefer such names as social net. We were interested in what characterizes today’s Internet services and set out to study eleven Web 2.0 sites that encapsulated the new breed of Internet services. We found that O’Reilly’s definition of Web 2.0 describes well what is happening on the Internet today. Today’s Internet is indeed about harnessing collective intelligence and about user-contributed content. Huge numbers of items require us to use social navigation with its recommender systems to find items of interest and users have advanced from being simple consumers of content to being a major source of the Web 2.0 content as well. Users contribute content directly by uploading text (in blogs, forums, and reviews), photos, and video clips, and in addition to such intentionally contributed content, the systems generate content by tracking user activities. Moreover, today’s Internet services are characterized by sociability.
