Towards a Lightweight User-Centered Content Syndication Architecture

چکیده
This paper gives a structural overview of social software and its use for content aggregation and publication. We then extend this view to a user-centered perspective. We propose a lightweight XML-based content syndication architecture. It supports bidirectional information flow, as a proper extension and unification mechanism to facilitate the usage of several social software systems at once. Finally, we discuss benefits and limitations of this architecture.
