I'm working with a user experience strategy team on developing a conceptual mapping or topology for a very large internet domain that has millions of leaf-level pages. We will need to differentiate between public and private areas; between generic and personalized areas; and between straight information delivery and robust web application areas. We may also benefit from a scheme for task- or goal-oriented topologies and audience-focused topologies. Can anyone recommend any research or writings that discuss way finding on the Internet, notions of space on the Internet, and the transition between Internet space and other social, conceptual or physical spaces? thanks, Ruth Kaufman ..................................................
