Wh...Thanks Yves, your work looks very interesting. When considering metrics, there is always the danger of measuring volume instead of value. By having an effective view of the community and their goals or needs, I have found it helpful to envision valuable end-states and design metrics that stimulate synergistic behavior. "What you measure is what you get"<BR/><BR/>Here's a few additional ideas with respect to measuring content usage:<BR/>1. Make your social network explicit. Not all nodes are equal. Focus on stakeholders by value priority.<BR/>2. Capture metrics on who is accessing content, make sure your system let's you see both what content is being accessed and who is accessing them.<BR/>3. Pay attention to trends. I've found it very insightful to ask questions on why some content is becoming popular or conversely losing popularity.<BR/>4. Consider ratings. This is more relevant to social network mapping than to content usage because of the 90-9-1 rule. I'll be blogging more about this dynamic later this week.<BR/><BR/>-- HowardHoward Lenoshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04822405577117240936noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3509893.post-6202478825076454642008-06-02T13:35:00.000-04:002008-06-02T13:35:00.000-04:00I just discovered your blog ...
