The Berkman Center will host the Corante Symposium on Social Architecture (CSSA).  The one-day event, which will be at Harvard, will convene many of the field's leading thinkers and doers for an intense and multi-faceted exploration of topics related to so-called social technologies, tools, applications, and publications that are allowing individuals to connect, create, collaborate, and communicate.  The central themes of the symposium: the tools, technologies, and techniques that underlie our shared exploration of the social space embodied in the emerging Web 2.0 - what we call social architecture. This involves the orientation and impact of search services (like Google), the models inherent in social search systems (like Technorati, IceRocket, and others), social bookmarking solutions (like Del.icio.us, and others), and the intent and future direction of shared blogrolls, tags, trackbacks, links, and other explicit author-generated cross-references.  Berkman fellow, David Weinberger, is a conference advisor and just yesterday did the keynote for a blogging conference.
