Abstract :
Today´s World-Wide Web was designed for sharing information among many users, yet it lacks abstractions for people and places. Browsing the Web is a solitary activity because Web clients and servers do not natively support multi-user interaction. This paper discusses these limitations in the current Web architecture and proposes a set of extensions to improve the multi-user interactive nature of the Web.
