Social Networks and Web 2.0
Today a second generation of web-based communities and hosted services -
such as social networking sites, wikis and folksonomies - is emerging
which facilitate collaboration and sharing between users. The term Web
2.0 has been coined to embrace all those new collaborative applications
and also to indicate a new "social" approach to generating and
distributing Web content, characterized by open communication,
decentralization of authority, and freedom to share and re-use. Implicit
and explicit in many Web 2.0 applications are social networks, through
which users share and filter content, collaborate, seek information, and
interact socially on the Web.
The Web 2.0 and Social Network Track provides a unique forum both for
describing innovative collaborative and open applications, and data
sharing scenarios, as well as novel technologies and methodologies for
building and managing these applications. We welcome contributions
relating to specific classes of applications as well as to cross-cutting
issues. Relevant topics include, but are not restricted to, the following:
*
E-Communities and Web-based collaboration
*
Ethnographic and data mining analysis of online communities
including blogs, online social networking and social media sites, and
