Abstract
AbstractMany organizations do not use schedulers, that is schedule management and shared systems. Often, this is because users find it difficult to remain motivated to use such systems. Therefore, we have developed a casual schedule management and shared system that makes use of an avatar. The dress-up items and accessories available for each avatar increase, depending on the number of items in a schedule. This system can be used on mixi— a Japanese social networking site. From the results of our experiments, we found that our system was able to maintain a user’s motivation. This is particularly true of users who are interested in acquiring dress-up items and accessories, as we found that they input their schedule more than the users who are less interested in those aspects of the system.Keywordsschedule sharingsocial network serviceavatarmotivation
