Abstract
Mobile web studies undertaken in 2008 confirm the dominance of social networking in the mobile web – where we have huge amounts of (mostly tagged) user-generated content (UGC) that call for appropriate methods for retrieval and highly interactive user interfaces. Unfortunately, existing mobile (social) web applications are less interactive and do rarely exploit user-provided tags or the user’s context for improving mobile interaction with such data. In this paper we present an approach and a map-based mobile social web application that allows for exploring the folksonomy space and related geo-referenced resources utilizing a gesture-driven orientation-based menu. Our prototype that runs on pen-based mobile devices was evaluated in a user study and yields promising results.
