Does content categorization lead to knowledge building? An experiment in a social bookmarking service

作者:

Highlights:

• We aimed to verify whether content categorization leads to knowledge building (KB).

• We ran an experiment in the social bookmarking service Uxmarks.com.

• We measured the perception of KB × user participation (lurking or posting behavior).

• There was no correlation between KB perception and user participation.

• In other words, and lurkers and posters could equally benefit from the service.
