People create enormous amounts of content in social media such
as Flickr, Twitter, Facebook, and Blogger -- and because these
media focus on awareness and current activity, most of this
content disappears under the sea of the new, never to be seen
again. In this talk we'll explore how systems can re-use these
data to help create computational, social science, and personal
knowledge. We'll use case studies around collaboration in Wikipedia,
making sense of relationships in Facebook, and supporting
personal reflection using social media to illuminate major themes around
re-using these past data, including the value of
multi-method approaches, the need to consider what is left out
in online contexts, the potential of helping people use these data
to better understand themselves, and the value of doing work that
combines research, commercial, and personal interests.
