Description:
Google Tech Talks February 15, 2007 ABSTRACT The emergence of Social Web has resulted in a spectrum of collaborative information environments. These social software span from systems with lightweight collaboration that identify faddishness of information (digg.com) to heavyweight collaboration systems that produce encyclopedia content (Wikipedia). We are interested in understanding the emerging behavior in social software, particularly how they enable social search, foraging and sensemaking.
We summarized initial results from PARC's Augmented Social Cognition research project, where we studied both Wikipedia and del.icio.us to characterize their evolution.
Speaker Ed H. Chi is a senior research scientist at Palo Alto Research Center's User Interface Research Group.
