UNC Social Software Symposium
Posted on: November 15, 2006
I am really excited because I have been invited to attend the UNC Social Software Symposium, which will be held from December 8-9 at UNC Chapel Hill. Fred Stutzman, the academic expert on Facebook, put it together. The symposium will bring people together that do research on social software and tagging. My research is obviously concentrating on the social tagging/classification aspects, so I am really looking forward to spending two days bouncing ideas with other people and hopefully making contacts for future collaborations. I also seriously need to think/talk about appropriate methodologies for researching social software. Currently, I am thinking of doing longitudinal sampling, social network analysis, survey, and follow up interviews. Perhaps its too much work? But this is my dissertation and all. I hope to get some good feedback on this in December, and will certainly report back what I learned.
