Abstract :
This article describes the microblogging as an ecosystem that allows sharing of ideas and approach people with similar interests, although it requires great effort of filtering information, to keep up to date. We present a social matching model that seeks to build a computational mechanism to serve this purpose, exploring new possibilities in cooperative learning.
