Space-Time-Cube Envisioned for Social Networking Services
Considering space and time which are the basic reference in peoples ordinary are still not widely used in the current social networking services, the paper envisioned the uses of the Space-Time-Cube in this area. Specifically, the study represented two main components of social networking services (social networks and person profiles) in a spatial-temporal manner. For the social networks, Space-Time Cube provides different views for both group-level or individual-level social networks; for the personal profiles, Space-Time-Cube can organically organize and represent them by using the Annotated-Space-Time-Path. It can be concluded that the spatial-temporal information is an important type of factor of the social networking services and the Space-Time-Cube can make social networking information more convenient and understandable for each participant
