Abstract:
We use a life-like tree ecosystem metaphor to represent
the people, activities and artifacts created by members of
an online community. The resulting system, eTree,
provides a social visualization and query interface to help
end users browse, navigate, participate and learn about
the participants in an online community. eTree was
implemented for an online community. It provides a
browsing tool to various information located on the
communitys online space and a tool that supported real-time
social interaction. The system provides easy access
to social and content information that can help to foster
online social interaction and enable users to use the
information to develop their social network in the online
community.
To Be Presented as a Poster at:
IEEE Symposium on Information Visualization 2002 (InfoVis 2002): October 28-29, 2002.
