  • Abstract
    Character agents were introduced to navigate users and to provoke the utterance in a community on the Internet. We had conducted the experiment to research the effectiveness of the character agents with respect to the affinity of a community, and found that the usefulness of the navigator was related to its familiarity to the networked community.
