Puneet,
Thanks also for the summary.
I was wondering: was there good representation from the collaborative
computing / CSCW communities? Being a CSCW person myself, my concern is
that a solid understanding of "volunteered information" is critical
before geography can be added -- i.e., understanding human nature is
critical to the success or failure of any "VI" endeavor, geographic or
otherwise.
These thoughts are fleshed out a bit more in the position paper I
submitted:
<http://www.ncgia.ucsb.edu/projects/vgi/docs/supp_docs/PriedhorskyReid_paper.pdf>.
Thanks,
Reid
