This is a fundamental question that bugs me a lot*. I was wondering about the validity of social science insights that were learned by analyzing social media data. We are obviously thrilled to use the huge amounts of data available online to draw sociological conclusions and learn patterns of human interactions/preferences/... - but can we really generalize those observations to social patterns in general or should we restrict our insights to *o...

I hope everyone will stick around for the data challenge workshop on the last day of the conference. Kevin Burton from Spinn3r will be speaking, and we'll have a wish-list discussion about data.

Laura Knudsen posted 2 tracks?

Heard at the poster session: "I came to this conference in order to get social scientist input into my approach and ideas for future research." If there are 2 tracks next year, suggest that the conference provide some way for dataset characteristics, research questions, approaches/operationalizations, and key takeaways to be discussed meaningfully and in detail across the tracks.

John Breslin posted Reports on keynotes

I'm trying to write blog posts of the keynotes and invited talks (should have done panels too like the Government / Social Media one but didn't think of that) as it's a bit more difficult to get a good feel of what has been said when there's no paper associated with the talk - I know there'll be videolectures.net later but sometimes it's handy to skim some text :) So far, have: http://socialmedia.net/2010/05/24/bob-kraut-talks-community-design-it...

Anyone know the San Jose area? I agree with Sharon that the $185 + tax is kinda spendy. Anyone know of any other hotels that might be a bit more cost effective?

Oren Tsur: I don't know much about SJ area but personally I'm staying at te Motel-6 some 2.5 miles from the conference venue. I'm intending to rent a bike so I commute faster and I could also see more of the city this way. Ah, motel 6 is 60$ a night. I don't kn... [read more]

Joe McCarthy left a note for Eytan Adar

Eytan: thanks for inviting authors to post their presentations to slideshare (http://www.slideshare.net) during the conference. Three authors have accepted the invitation, which seems like a very low acceptance rate for a community that studies social media. Perhaps there's a bias against participating in (i.e., only observing, analyzing, reporting on) social media among some of the researchers, but I think it would to everyone's advantage to share the knowledge beyond the sessions (especially to share the knowledge below the bottom third of the slides, that most of us who were at the conference could not even see).

I would like to invite you to send directed emails to authors to point them to SlideShare, a wonderful social media resource for sharing information about, well, sharing information.

Thanks!
