Inhaltsangabe

Social navigation is an emerging field which examines how we navigate information or locate services in both real and virtual environments and how we interact with and use others to find our way in information spaces. It has led to new ways of thinking about how we design information spaces and how we address usability issues, particularly in collaborative, web-based systems. This book follows on from Munro et al, Social Navigation of Information Space, which was the first major work in this field. It provides a similar broad overview of the field, but is much more practical in focus.

Reseña del editor

This volume provides a thoroughly up-to-date guide to the use of the Social Navigation approach in designing information spaces. The first part focuses on real life systems such as Kalas, GeoNotes and Babble, and examines the rationale for some of the design choices made. The second part takes a detailed look at the underlying principles and ideas that drive the field. Overall this book aims to provide the reader with a wealth of example systems, concepts and practical ideas to help them get the most out of this important new approach. Designing Information Spaces: The Social Navigation Approach will mainly be of interest to anyone designing collaborative information spaces or web sites. It will also be useful for anyone studying or researching topics such as HCI, virtual environments, user interfaces and information retrieval.
