Social Navigation

چکیده
A common way to navigate an information space in the real world is with help of other people, e.g. instead of looking at my map I ask another person for the direction of the place I want to go to. This communication with other agents (human o r artificial) to navigate an information space is what we call social navigation. In this paper social navigation is examined; how does it work; who uses it; and most importantly, how do we navigate socially in virtual information spaces? Basically i t is possible to identify two types of social navigation: direct social navigation, and indirect social navigation.

Those activities may be recorded up and presented to others through their wireless devices, and serve in social navigation. One design challenge is how to deal with the technical limits and ‘seams’ of such...
