Call for Participation in Microposts Community Group

W3C has launched the Microposts Community Group

The purpose of this group is to connect the multidisciplinary (Social Science, Semantic Web, Information Retrieval, …) research community interested in the study and treatment of low-effort user generated content on the Web (tweets, checkins, status messages, likes,…), called microposts. The objective of this community is to develop ways to leverage this massively growing, yet informationally poor source of data on the Web for different practical use cases.

In order to join the group, you will need a W3C account.

This group was originally proposed on 2012-04-20. The following people supported its creation: Milan Stankovic, Uros Krcadinac, Jelena Jovanovic, Filip Radulovic, Matthew Rowe.

If you believe that there is an issue with this group that requires the attention of the W3C staff, please send us email on site-comments@w3.org

Thank you,
W3C Community Development Team
