email, instant messaging, social
networking (Facebook, Twitter,
LinkedIn, Google+ etc.), wikis, and
social bookmarking have been widely
popularised by providing digital
platforms for social interaction.

profoundly change social behaviours
and digital life styles of humankind
whilst pushing the boundaries of
Internet technologies. While people
can enjoy or even indulge in the
