Introduction
• Current search technology does not utilize the relation between the people-people and people-content.
• Need for more personalized search result.– Peoples participate in social sites.– Privacy as an important issues.– Example : Google search on cute baby gives
Introduction
• A typical person is involved in – Social networks like facebook for family and
friends– Professional networks like LinkedIn.– One among many bookmarking site• del.icio.us, digg, simpy, CiteULike
– Other book, movie recommendation sites.• So your friends are clustered among different
sites.
Introduction
MySpace
Orkut
Which network too join ??
Imagine the situation when user wants to share multimedia, bookmarking, recommendation and other Web2.0 application
Problem Statement
• How can we infer the social linkage between the users in different sites?
• How can we identify different clusters of communities associated with certain inter-ests?
• If a user participates in many social clusters, how should a search query be resolved with respect to the different clusters?
Related Work
• Tribler– social community that facilitates file sharing through a peer-to-
peer (p2p) networks a social P2P application where a user can share and consume the contents in Youtube, Bittorrent and liveleak
• Diki – a social bookmarking service that allows users to encrypt and
share bookmarks with friends via the XMPP real-time communication protocol.
• Wisebook – integrated with Facebook for peer to peer file exchange but now
it is defunct.
Social Content Graph
• A social content graph is a logical graph structure where the labeled nodes represent people and contents, and the labeled edges represent relations between users and items, as well as activities users perform on items or other users.
Content-content -hyperlinks -message threads
Person-Person -friendship -subscribed -endorsedContent-Person
-authored-by -mentions
Person-Content -tagged -authored -endorsed

Used as Plug-in
System Architecture
• User Interface– use to give basic FOAF information, publish content in both peer
to peer and web and search the heterogeneous information sources.
• Middleware Layer for Social Network– provides an interface to publish and search information in both
Web and P2P• Wrapper Layer for handling with other systems
– helps to integrate the system with the existing Web2.0 applications.
– Wrapper of online social networks helps to capture the relationship that already exists in Web.

Social P2P Layer• The Social overlay is the relation between the people in P2P and Web together
showing the social tie between the peers. This social overlay manages the relations between different peers, maintaining multiple identity, identifying friends, updating friends list, friend interest areas and other information that are subjected to change.

Conclusions
• Exploring the link between the people and the documents and maintaining the connectivity between the people
• Solve the problem finding of social-content that may reside in different heterogeneous sites.
• Combining P2P and traditional web application we tried to get the maximum benefits to retrieve the social content. P2P Infrastructures used to share the FOAF information whereas the Web is used to search for the information.
Future Work
• P2P to make server less system for Message Boards and Forums with capabilities of Web 2.0 applications.
• Our future research will be directed towards making social networks in P2P infrastructure.
