Abstract

Instead of focusing on negative sides of the freedom observed on the Web, it can be more interesting to consider the Web as a support for the establishment of a collective knowledge. Considering the Web through this kind of perspective makes obvious that tools are missing in order to enhance and develop the awareness of users on the Web as well as the ability to share Web experiences with others. In this paper we propose a 3D Web based tool called _knowscape that offers a mean to users to share their Web experiences. We will describe concepts that guide our project and technologies and features that are used to try to enhance the Web experience and bring Web browsing to another level of consideration.
