Someone: A Cooperative System for Personalized Information Exchange.

Abstract

This paper presents a user-centric, social-media service: SoMeONe. Its goal is to build an information exchange network using Web informational networks. Itshould allow the construction of personal knowledge bases whose quality is improved by collaboration. It tries to increase the user's commitment by helping him to establish and to maintain interesting interactions with enriching people. Although many users are individualist, the rules we define for this media should encourage a cooperative behaviour. The functionalities it offers are between a bookmark management system and mailing lists. With SoMeONe users exchange information with semantic addressing: they only need to annotate information for being diffused to appropriate users. Each user interacts only through a manually controlled contact network composed of known and trusted users. However, to keep his contact network open, SoMeOne helps each user to send information to new appropriate users. In return, the user expects these users to send him new information as well. In companies, where the Intranet is composed of huge amounts of heterogeneous and diverse information, such collective behaviour should increase the personal efficiency of each collaborator. Thus, SoMeONe provides some solutions to some knowledge management problems particularly for companies aware of the value of their social capital.
