Curverider: The Internet is People. JENKA WEB. Social Networks & the NEED for FEEDS - Graphing Social Patte. Social Networks And Group Formation - Boxes and Arrows: The desi. This is the first in a three-part series on academic research that illuminates social networks, one of the most important trends in design today. Humans suffer from information overload; there’s much more information on any given subject than a person is able to access. As a result, people are forced to depend upon each other for knowledge. Know-who information rather than know-what, know-how or know-why information has become most crucial. It involves knowing who has the needed information and being able to reach that person (Johnson et al. 2000).

In this context, understanding the formation, evolution and utilization of online social networks becomes important. A social network is “a set of people (or organizations or other social entities) connected by a set of social relationships, such as friendship, co-working or information exchange.” This field is of particular interest to researchers working at the intersection of information systems, sociology and mathematics.

Conclusion. Internet in the Classroom and at Home The Bridging Role of Publi. Ferran R. TARRAGÓ <ferran@pie.xtec.es>Generalitat de Catalunya Spain Introduction: the Argo Project and its context In a world in which the Internet and mobile phone technologies are leveling many communications barriers, in which the difference between work at home and at office is becoming progressively blurred, in which distance is no obstacle for collaboration, school and home still stand as two worlds apart, with distinct and separate uses of the Internet. The Internet offers a unique opportunity to use new educational materials that can link students' activities in school and at home.

On the curriculum side, such materials should extend the demonstration, simulation, and information display capabilities of the teachers while, on the home and personal side, they should provide both individual and cooperative project work proposals for students, exercise and self-assessment tools, optional information and advanced learning ,and leisure resources.

Digg / Technology. Jeff Day&#039;s Blog : Community Platform Updates Coming Soon. There are several interesting things coming soon from the Community Platform team. Social BookmarkingWe're releasing a nice Social Bookmarking Preview in late May. Our marketing team is planning some minor hoopla to show the app off at TechEd. MSDN, TechNet and Expression will all have their own instance of the bookmarking app, so you will experience the app as MSDN Social Bookmarking, TechNet Social Bookmarking, etc. Nevertheless, you are not constrained to bookmarking items on these sites, or even within Microsoft.

You will be able to bookmark almost any item on the Internet that has a URL (the exceptions being adult sites and the like). Social Bookmarking is a useful way for you to save your favorites on the server and access them from any machine or browser. The Preview will show off some interesting ideas about how bookmarks and tags can be socially shared. Most of the core functionality that we're delivering now has been done by other sites like Del.icio.us.
