EventMe is a mobile application that provides a personalized list of events based on location and interests by using social features like Facebook login. The app allows users to easily create and share spontaneous events with other users. It aims to be a central place for students at NUS to learn about all events on campus through a simple and intuitive interface.

Understanding the Privacy Implications of Using Context-based Awareness Cues ...Ville Antila
Information from the physical world is increasingly being digitalized and shared in social networks. We share our locations, tag photos and add different kinds of informal awareness cues about the physical world to our online communities. In this paper, we investigate the privacy implications of shared context cues in social networking services. We present an experimental mobile application, which allows users to add different descriptions of context information to their Facebook and Twitter status updates. The application was used by 12 persons during a two-week user trial using their own devices and Facebook accounts. The results indicate that user-defined abstractions of context items were often preferred over more accurate indicators due to privacy concerns or discomfort in sharing. We also found out that using shared context from friends in vicinity needs careful design to overcome the extended privacy implications.

ContextCapture: Exploring the Usage of Context-based Awareness Cues in Inform...Ville Antila
In this paper, we investigate the usage of context-based awareness cues in informal information sharing, especially in social networking services. We present an experimental mobile application, which allows users to add different descriptions of context information to their Facebook status updates. The meaningfulness and the usage of different context descriptions were evaluated in a two-week user trial. The results show that the most frequently used awareness cues in the test setting were location, surroundings, friends and activity. The results also indicate that user-defined semantic abstractions of context items (e.g. “home”, “work”) were often more informative and useful than more accurate indicators (e.g. the address or the name of the place). We also found out that using shared context from friends in vicinity (e.g. identifying the people around) needs careful design to overcome the extended privacy implications.
Developing an Architecture of ParticipationGrahamAttwell
This presentation focuses on work undertaken through the European Commission funded Bazaar project to establish a community of practice for researchers and practitioners in open source software and open content. The paper considers the use of social software to support such a community of practice. It considers some of the theories and ideas behind supporting communities before going on to outline the design of an Architecture of Participation.

ICSC2015 KeyNote: Semantic links in visual webRamesh Jain
Photos and videos are new documents. They are independent of language and literacy. By linking photos with other photos as well as other sources of information, we can create a Web that will be a visual Web. This web may be accessible to people in every part of the world.

EventMe is a personalised event
list based on relevance and
Discover location. The events application
uses social features like
Participate facebook login’s and friends to
help make events viral. Users
will be empowered to create
and share adhoc-events with
other users on the fly, through
their mobile phones.
NUS is a hotbed of events.
Events happen all the time, yet
there is no one coherent place
to know about all the events
happening in the school.
Students would greatly benefit
by having such knowledge at
their fingertips. The incentive to
use the application is through a
simple interface that is intuitive
and fun.
