Abstract

In this panel, a group of theorists and systems builders, each of whom has constructed a social navigation system, try to generalize beyond their own specific work and discuss what the possible applications and implications of social navigation will be for human-computer interfaces. Perspectives range from the pragmatic to the theoretical. The panelists describe ways in which future systems, influenced by social navigation ideas, might be built.
