In-person lectures have structural issues that active communications in the classroom are limited because of the environments where the instructor usually delivers learning contents in a unilateral manner. Therefore, microcontents activities using real-time microblogging were suggested as complementary measures for the lecture in this study. Fourteen students in K University participated in the learning activity for eight weeks using a microblog during instructions. As a result, it was found that participants' positive learning activities increased by producing and collaborating ideas through real-time microblogging. Based on the results, suggestions were made as follows: strategies for the attention to the class, quality management of microcontents, and the development of blended learning design should be more studied further.

Recently international organizations such as ISO/TC211, OGC, INSPIRE (Infrastructure for Spatial Information in Europe) make an effort to share geospatial data using semantic web technologies. In addition, smart phone and social networking services enable community-based opportunities for participants to share issues of a social phenomenon based on geographic area, and many researchers try to find a method of extracting issues from that. However, serviceable spatial ontologies are still insufficient at application level, and studies of spatial information extraction from SNS were focused on user's location finding or geocoding by text mining. Therefore, a study of extracting spatial phenomenon from social media information and converting it into geosemantic knowledge is very usable. In this paper, we propose a framework for extracting keywords from micro-blog, one of the social media services, finding their relationships using data mining technique, and converting it into spatiotemopral knowledge. The result of this study could be used for implementing a related system as a procedure and ontology model for constructing geoseem antic issue. And from this, it is expected to improve the effectiveness of finding, publishing and analysing spatial issues.

The purpose of this paper is to review research articles on social computing and to provide the future directions of the study. A total of 51 articles published in social scientific journals from 2006 to 2010 are analysed by research theme, methodology, level of analysis, and application area. It is found that most of the studies are addressing blogs and mainly focusing on societal concepts rather than organizational concepts. The predominant methodology is field study at the individual level of analysis. We suggest that future researches on social computing need to address more various topics and application areas. Also diversity in terms of methodology and level of analysis is required.

Twitter has been continuously growing since October, 2006. Especially, not only the users and the number of messages have been increasing but also a new concept in social networking called 'micro blogging' has diffused. Within Korea, service such as 'me2day' has already been introduced and the improvement of internet accessibility within mobile devices is expected to expand the 'micro blogs'. In this point, this research is executed to study the new medium, 'micro blog'. To do so, we collected and analyzed Twitter logs of Korean users. Especially, we were curious about the extreme heavy users using Twitter, despite of the linguistic and cultural barrier of the foreign service. Who they are, why and how they use the 'micro blog'. First, we reviewed the general aspect of followers and messages by collecting a certain number of random samples. Using the Lorenz curve we found out that there was the imbalance within the users and based on this phenomenon we deducted an extreme heavy user group. In order to perform further analysis, log analysis was performed on the extreme heavy users. As the result, the users used multiple mobile and desktop 'Twitter' clients. The usage pattern was similar to that of internet usage time but was used during their "micro" time. The users using 'Twitter' not only to spread messages about important information, special events and emotions, but also as a habitual 'chatting tool' to express ordinary personal chats similar to SMS and IM services. In this research, it is proved that 68% of the total messages were ordinary personal chats. Also, with 24% of the total messages were retweets, we were able to find out that virtually connected 'people' and 'relationships' acted as the dominant trigger of their articulation.

Affiliate marketing is classified as a type of online advertising, where merchants share a percentage of sales revenue generated by each customer, who visited the company's website via a content provider. Content provider, referred to as an affiliate, usually places an online advertisement at its website. For the past few years, there have been a lot of companies or individuals who participate in affiliate marketing. Generally speaking, most of them have websites and post the merchant's ads on their own websites. However, building and maintaining websites have some technology requirements. The widespread use of Social Network Service (SNS), especially microblog-based SNS such as Twitter and Sina Weibo, provides opportunities for individuals who want to be content providers of affiliate marketing. Since information spreads quickly on microblog-based SNS and the easy in targeting customers, it is both an effective and an efficient tool to do affiliate marketing. The relationship between a content provider and the potential customer, which is referred as "tie strength", is quite an important issue in such situation. This paper proved that service characteristics of the microblog-based SNS (security, community drivenness and navigability) and content quality all had positive influence on click-through intention, while tie strength played a moderating role. For the group with strong tie, tie strength is crucial in influencing click-through intention. While for the weak tie group, content quality was very important. Finally, we proposed some implications for both academics and practitioners.

Recent researches on Entity Linking(EL) have attempted to disambiguate entities by using a knowledge base to handle the semantic relatedness and up-to-date information. However, EL for tweets using a knowledge base is still unsatisfactory, mainly because the tweet data are mostly composed of short and noisy contexts and real-time issues. The EL system the present work builds up links ambiguous entities to the corresponding entries in a given knowledge base via exploring the news articles and the user history. Using news articles, the system can overcome the problem of Wikipedia coverage (i.e., not handling real-time issues). In addition, given that users usually post tweets related to their particular interests, the current system referring to the user history robustly and effectively works with a small size of tweet data. In this paper, we propose an approach to building an EL system that links ambiguous entities to the corresponding entries in a given knowledge base through the news articles and the user history. We created a dataset of Korean tweets including ambiguous entities randomly selected from the extracted tweets over a seven-day period and evaluated the system using this dataset. We use accuracy index(number of correct answer given by system/number of data set) The experimental results show that our system achieves a accuracy of 67.7% and outperforms the EL methods that exclusively use a knowledge base.

As disaster number increases, governmental institutions is trying to construct effective disaster information system. Especially, most institutions are using disaster information system based on GIS such as electronic disaster map. However, most previous systems have vulnerability when connecting to the another systems because systems consider only specific area and system is independent data structure. Above all things, existing have to put a lot of time and effort because system need direct work course for service. Therefore, this paper implements quick and methodical disaster information service via study of data code and map, microblog service from internet portal site.
