Categorisation/taxonomy of online social systems?
Dear all, I have been searching without success a categorisation / toxonomy of online social systems. I have of course been searching the web but also Science Direct. For instance blogs, wikis, microbloging, OSN, etc. function differently, and have a different role in the web 2.0. Actually, you can even consider that a web 2.0 solution would be able to combine different mechanisms. Are you aware of any paper / theory proposing such as categorisation? Note: Several papers (including one which I am the coauthor) provide an inventory and a short description of the different types of systems (for instance in education science Procedia in 2009 has a couple of them, and there is a recent report from IPTS Sevilla about usage of Learning 2.0), but they do not really try to make a categorisation in order to compare their characteristics. Thanks in advance for references you may be aware of something.

Marti Hearst proposes such a categorization in her talk on Social Technology, up on slideshare at http://www.slideshare.net/marti_hearst/social-technology Cecilia On Mon, Nov 23, 2009 at 9:29 AM, NABETH Thierry <Thierry.NABETH@insead.edu> wrote:

Hello, Coye Cheshire and I recently (last month) published a book chapter that categorizes online collaborative systems. We focus on the influence of uncertainty about systems and online environments, and primarily use social exchange theory as a theoretical framework: Cheshire, C., and J. Antin. 2009. “Order, Coordination and Uncertainty.” Pp. 266-291 in eTrust: Forming Relationships in the Online World, edited by K. S. Cook, C. Snijders, V. Buskins, and C. Cheshire.

Thank you all for your input. I got some references to some interesting papers, but I have to admit I did not found out what I was looking for (a relatively formal categorisation, that could for instance have been expressed as a table comparing the 'properties' (&functions) of the different systems). Maybe this is something that has not really been done yet. Anyway, I will do with what I am, and I will post something here in the case that later I 'stumble upon' such a categorisation. Bye, and thanks again.

Thierry: I did a similar study with virtual worlds using a faceted classification approach. Perhaps you could use the same method to do the same? I'm happy to share resources if you're interested.
