The development of social media in the 2000s led the unspecified individuals to band together for common interests. Social networking services served as a far-reaching tool for sharing different thoughts and interpretation of the pop culture and helped people build up close relations driven by their common interests for certain works of the pop culture. This Study introduces the TV Series as a case that displays specific patterns of communication between its producer and viewers. Producer Bryan Fuller of the Series as well as key production staffs were quite active on social networking sites with the understanding of what the audience desired and the willingness to sympathize with them, which were eagerly welcomed by the dedicated audience whose number, though, was not big. For the Hannibal production team, SNS was a means for them to just be consumers who appreciate the work instead of solely being the content provider. Their approach is quite different from unilateral marketing approaches employed in the past. Through this case, the Study aims to suggest that social networking sites serve as a powerful medium connecting producers and viewers or as an information hub, and that how interactive contents shall be delivered in the new media environment to be effective.

This study explored the factors associated with dependence among smartphone-dependent adults in their 20s. The data was derived from the 2017 survey on smartphone over-dependence conducted by the Ministry of Science and ICT and the National Information Society Agency. The participants were 879 adults in their 20s. The data was analyzed by frequencies, percentages, means, standard deviations, independent t-tests, Pearson's correlation coefficients, and multiple regression analysis. The results revealed instant messengers as the most used application by participants. Participants in the high risk category of dependence also used SNS (Social Networking Services), music, and games more than those in the potential risk category. The more serious the dependence, the greater the frequency of smartphone use (β=.16, p=.000), and use of games (β=.10, p=.028), webtoons (β=.14, p=.004), SNS (β=.09, p=.047), and financial transactions (β=.17, p=.000). They did not recognize their smartphone dependence when it was relatively low. However, when this became serious, they then realized that they depended on the smartphone more than others. That means that it is not easy for adults to recognize their smartphone dependence on their own. However, recognition of the problem is the first step for adults to solve their problems. A program that evaluates their problematic smartphone use should be installed and used on all smartphones.

Owing to the advent of digital devices which equipped with GPS, such as smartphone and tablet pc, a number of LBSNS applications have been released and even SNS applications serve various Location-Based Services. In twitter's case, the news of interesting area is provided to user not by being subscribed them automatically, but by being searched on web-site. This paper describes the system designed for users want to subscribe the local news without procedure like searching using operators. This system uses PBSM(Partition Based Spatial-Merge Join) which has no index for batch processing and against a massive query. The results from Spatial Join are stored in Materialized View then provided to user.

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.

Recently, SNS is widely used for various purposes such as fast decision making or effective business process in educational institutions or enterprise as well as general services for social networking. Unfortunately, all of existing general SNS platforms do not provide user groups with workspaces for sharing information in a hierarchical way, nor support the functionality of workspace backup for migrations. In this paper, we present a collaborative workspace environment named ElggSpace which extends the Elgg SNS platform with the C3ware collaborative middleware. With the help of C3ware, ElggSpace systematically supports collaborative workspaces that enable user groups to share massive resource in cloud storages. In addition, ElggSpace allows high-level access controls for resources management and the functionality of resource backup, supporting effective collaboration.

With rapid growth of web technology and dissemination of smart devices, social networking service(SNS) is widely used. As a result, huge amount of data are generated from SNS such as Twitter, and sentiment analysis of SNS data is very important for various applications and services. In the existing sentiment analysis based on the $Na{\ddot{i}}ve$ Bayes algorithm, a same number of attributes is usually employed to estimate the weight of each class. Moreover, uncountable and meaningless attributes are included. This results in decreased accuracy of sentiment analysis. In this paper two methods are proposed to resolve these issues, which reflect the difference of the number of positive words and negative words in calculating the weights, and eliminate insignificant words in the feature selection step using Multinomial $Na{\ddot{i}}ve$ Bayes(MNB) algorithm. Performance comparison demonstrates that the proposed scheme significantly increases the accuracy compared to the existing Multivariate Bernoulli $Na{\ddot{i}}ve$ Bayes(BNB) algorithm and MNB scheme.

With the development and invention of computer and internet, GIS (Geographic Information System) has provided diverse services to users. Web 2.0, the next generation web, has been developed to create a new business by accumulating and structuring information from many users. The characteristics of Web 2.0 are blog, longtail distribution, SNS, DCC, collective intelligence, and so on. This study proposes a GIS 2.0 service model to maximize the introduction effect and use of GIS by the method that two-way communication and the participation of consumer, characteristics of Web 2.0, are used to build more practical GIS rather than providing spatial information in one-way and simple inquiry oriented way.

Audio-based SNS also needs a visual guide to reach the contents desired by the users. Therefore, this study investigates visual interface design elements that influence the experience of using audio contents in audio-based SNS. Prior researches have identified that the generally acknowledged interface design elements are important for the usability of audio contents. Through the analysis of the currently launched audio-based SNS, the influence of general interface elements were again confirmed, and via the analysis of other audio content services, a new interface evaluation element was explored. Accordingly, with five general interface evaluation elements-layout, color, icon, typography, graphic image, multimedia elements are newly defined and proposed as crucial factors in evaluating the UI of audio-based SNS.

Recently, SNS users have begun to complain of fatigue attributed by the dependency on the Social Networking Services, and this trend seem to have them cease or leave the SNS despite its exponential growth. Although researchers devote their effort to identify negative effects of perceived SNS fatigue on the intention to keep using SNS, it still lacks dealing with users' personal characteristics. Thus, this study looked into (1) the differences of perceived SNS fatigue and the differences of intention to leave SNS based on the users' characteristics (demographic variables, personality traits, and SNS usages) and (2) the users' characteristics on the intention to discontinue SNS. The results show that the users with low self-esteem were more likely to feel higher SNS fatigue and to discontinue SNS than those with high self-esteem, and the users in 20s showed higher intention to discontinue SNS than those in 40s. Moreover, the younger the users were, and the lower the levels of self-esteem were, the users reported higher level of fatigue. Additionally, the female users showed that the higher the level of fatigue, the stronger intentions to discontinue SNS. This research sheds light on the fact that the characteristics of users give influences the intention to discontinue SNS, and is expected to suggest practical implications in the ever-expanding SNS market.

The amount of personal information has increased dramatically due to the prevalent use of smartphones and the rapid growth of social networking services. Under these circumstances, there has been a lot of efforts to obtain new information based on the overflowing personal data. The conventional character analysis method, which heavily relies on personal surveys, had some limitations in that it was difficult for psychologist to have a complete access to the surveyed results. When it comes to celebrities, however, it is relatively easy to access to their information through various media. Therefore there has been various researches that examined celebrities' personalities. On the contrary, not many studies have focused on analyzing the characteristics of the general public whose information is not so accessible. In this research, we suggest a method to analyze ordinary people's characteristics based on information available via their social networking services. This research focuses on developing a Facebook-native application, which examines the user's character type based on the posts shared in the user's Facebook page.
