Editor's Notes
Wiki - A type of website that allows the visitors themselves to easily add, remove and otherwise edit and change some available content, sometimes without the need for registration
Mashup - A website or web application that seamlessly combines content from more than one source into an integrated experience
BYOD – Bring Your Own Data
Social Networking – A a social structure made of nodes which are generally individuals or organizations. It indicates the ways in which they are connected through various social familiarities ranging from casual acquaintance to close familial bonds
Folksonomy - an Internet-based information retrieval methodology consisting of collaboratively generated, open-ended labels that categorize content such as Web pages, online photographs, and Web links. A folksonomy is most notably contrasted from a taxonomy in that the authors of the labeling system are often the main users (and sometimes originators) of the content to which the labels are applied.
When you think about the sites that influence us today, there are potentially many more sources to consider.
Blogs have become a source of news from both sites we’ve consulted for a number of years - like CNET – as well as newer ones that have been launched by authoritative voices like Michael Arrington on Valleywag.
Google, Yahoo and MSN have always aggregated news from a variety of sources and they continue to play that role. Other properties like Techmeme aggregate vertical information for tech, while Podzinger is a resource for tech news from all over.
eCommunities have been around for many years. Increasingly they encourage users to participate in content generation. For example, Epinions let users post reviews of products, iVillage encourages xxx.
Social networks go further in letting users created personalized pages, invite friends in their network to post messages. Linked in allows business professionals to establish a network of contacts. Cyworld originated in Korea and is now in beta mode in U.S. It allows users to trade virtual goods and maintain customized, personalized avatar-based environments.
